Identification of Myocardial Bridges using Coronary Computed Tomography Angiography

Detection and Diagnosis

• Coronary Computed Tomography Angiography (CCTA) is highly effective at identifying myocardial bridges and is considered a preferred non-invasive method for their detection, according to the American College of Radiology 1, 2
• CCTA has a higher detection rate for myocardial bridges compared to invasive coronary angiography (ICA), as recommended by the American College of Radiology 1, 2

Clinical Application

• The American College of Radiology recommends CCTA as an appropriate imaging modality for evaluating coronary artery anomalies, including myocardial bridges 1, 2
