Noninvasive cardiac imaging is widely used to evaluate the presence of coronary
artery disease. Recently, with improvements in imaging technology, noninvasive
imaging has also been used for evaluation of the presence, severity, and
prognosis of coronary artery disease. Coronary CT angiography and MRI of coronary
arteries provide an anatomical assessment of coronary stenosis, whereas the
hemodynamic significance of a coronary artery stenosis can be assessed by stress
myocardial perfusion imaging, such as SPECT/PET and stress MRI. For appropriate
use of multiple imaging modalities, the strengths and limitations of each
modality are discussed in this review.
