CT evaluation of coronary artery stents with iterative image reconstruction: improvements in image quality and potential for radiation dose reduction
Ullrich Ebersberger,Francesco Tricarico,U. Joseph Schoepf,P Blanke,J. Reid Spears,Garrett W. Rowe,William T. Halligan,Thomas Henzler,Thomas Henzler,Fabian Bamberg,Alexander W. Leber,Ellen Hoffmann,Paul Apfaltrer,Paul Apfaltrer +13 more
TL;DR: Iterative reconstruction significantly improves imaging of coronary artery stents by CT compared with FBP, even with half-radiation-dose data, and has the potential to reduce radiation dose requirements.

Iterative Image Reconstruction Techniques for CT Coronary Artery Calcium Quantification: Comparison with Traditional Filtered Back Projection in Vitro and in Vivo
Andreas Schindler,Andreas Schindler,Rozemarijn Vliegenthart,Rozemarijn Vliegenthart,U. Joseph Schoepf,P Blanke,P Blanke,Ullrich Ebersberger,Young Jun Cho,Thomas Allmendinger,Sebastian Vogt,Rainer Raupach,C Fink,C Fink,Tobias Saam,Fabian Bamberg,Konstantin Nikolaou,Paul Apfaltrer,Paul Apfaltrer +18 more
TL;DR: In comparison with FBP, iterative reconstruction techniques do not have a profound effect on the reproducible quantification of coronary calcium according to Agatston score and subsequent cardiac risk classification, although risk reclassification may occur in a small subset of subjects.

Dynamic CT myocardial perfusion imaging: performance of 3D semi-automated evaluation software.
Ullrich Ebersberger,Roy P. Marcus,U. Joseph Schoepf,Gladys G. Lo,Yining Wang,Yining Wang,P Blanke,Lucas L. Geyer,Lucas L. Geyer,J. Cranston Gray,Andrew D. McQuiston,Young Jun Cho,Young Jun Cho,Michael Scheuering,Christian Canstein,Konstantin Nikolaou,Ellen Hoffmann,Fabian Bamberg +17 more
TL;DR: Three-dimensional semi-automated evaluation of dynamic myocardial perfusion CT data provides similar measures and diagnostic accuracy to manual evaluation, albeit with substantially reduced analysis times, may aid the integration of this test into clinical workflows.

Transient Ischemic Dilation of the Left Ventricle on SPECT: Correlation with Findings at Coronary CT Angiography
William T. Halligan,Pamela B. Morris,U. Joseph Schoepf,Blaine T. Mischen,James V. Spearman,J. Reid Spears,P Blanke,Young Jun Cho,Justin R. Silverman,Salvatore A. Chiaramida,Ullrich Ebersberger +10 more
TL;DR: The presence of TID with an otherwise normal SPECT MPI study does not translate into a greater extent of coronary artery disease as assessed by cardiac CT or increased risk for future major adverse cardiac events.

Fully automated derivation of coronary artery calcium scores and cardiovascular risk assessment from contrast medium-enhanced coronary CT angiography studies
Ullrich Ebersberger,Dov Eilot,Roman Goldenberg,Alon Lev,J. Reid Spears,Garrett W. Rowe,Nicholas Y. Gallagher,William T. Halligan,P Blanke,Marcus R. Makowski,Aleksander W. Krazinski,Justin R. Silverman,Fabian Bamberg,Alexander W. Leber,Ellen Hoffmann,U. Joseph Schoepf,U. Joseph Schoepf +16 more
TL;DR: Calcium score values automatically computed from cCTA are highly correlated with standard unenhanced CT calcium scoring studies, suggesting a radiation dose- and time-saving potential when deriving calcium scores from c CTA studies without a preceding unenhancements.
