The SYNTAX score is an angiographic scoring system that is currently used for evaluating the complexity of coronary lesions. Its efficiency in both long-term prognosis and the selection of treatment modalities has been shown in many studies. However, there is little evidence for the use of this scoring system in CT angiography, which has become a part of coronary artery disease practice. Here, we showed that the SYNTAX score could be used in a feasible way in CT angiography.
SYNTAX评分是一种血管造影评分系统,目前用于评估冠状动脉病变的复杂性。许多研究已表明其在长期预后和治疗方式选择方面的有效性。然而,在已成为冠心病诊疗一部分的CT血管造影中,使用该评分系统的证据很少。在此,我们表明SYNTAX评分可在CT血管造影中以可行方式使用。
