CT Coronary Angiography (CCTA)
CT coronary angiography is a high‑precision, non‑invasive method for detailed evaluation of coronary arteries. With contrast enhancement and high‑speed acquisition, a clear 3D visualization of myocardial vasculature is produced. Brigid Center uses a modern CT scanner and next‑generation contrast agents with low allergy risk. The examination is performed on CT Philips Brilliance 64.
