Cardiac computed tomography (CT) has become central to cardiovascular imaging, providing rapid, noninvasive assessment of coronary anatomy and morphology. Modern workflows focus on automation, dose reduction, and AI-assisted image reconstruction and plaque analysis. Next-generation developments extend beyond anatomy to functional and prognostic insights through new insights through improved resolution, AI-based image reconstruction or visualization of perivascular fat, integrated in your local digital health systems. These innovations are transforming cardiac CT from a diagnostic tool into a comprehensive platform for precision cardiology, improving efficiency, accuracy, and patient outcomes.
