The requesting physicians are demanding grading and percentage of stenosis. Please show cases with grading of stenosis.

Thanks

this is a very wide open question as grading will vary depending if you are talking about renal aa, carotid aa, coronary aa etc. it is true however that the referring docs more than ever want quantitative measurenebts from CT. one area of controversy has been coronary CTA but now most grade as;

under 50%

50-70%

greater than 70%

be more specific if you need more info :cool:

You have answered my question, its about CT coronary stenosis grading. Hope you can show grading of stenosis especially those with mixed plaque in your teaching files.

Thank you for your time.
