Coronary CTA is an imaging tool used to examine the coronary arteries of the heart and cannot examine the liver or detect liver abnormalities.
Coronary CTA is clinically known as multilayer spiral CT coronary artery imaging, or CTA for short. It is a means of examination in which the heart is scanned by spiral CT and then the coronary arteries are reconstructed in two or three dimensions by a computer program, which is mainly used for observing the stenosis of the coronary arteries or calcification of the walls, and is one of the important non-invasive means of examination of coronary heart disease.
The main scanning site of CTA is the chest, and the computer program used for reconstruction is suitable for heart examination, so it is difficult to perform a complete scan or examination of the liver. The most common imaging modality used for liver examination is ultrasound. If abnormalities are detected on ultrasound, further enhanced CT or MRI can be performed to further clarify the diagnosis.
It is recommended to consult a hospital as soon as possible for suspected liver abnormalities, and choose the appropriate examination means under the guidance of a specialized doctor according to the condition.
