Abstract
Image quality of blood vasculature is generally not affected by 80% CCTA dose reduction applied to standard prospective electrocardiogram-gated acquisition. The performance at the low-dose protocol owes to the increased phase window, enhancing image quality at the cost of sensitivity to heart rate variability as compared with standard CCTA.
