    AbstractMyocardial computed tomography perfusion (CTP) imaging is a noninvasive method for detecting myocardial ischemia. This study aimed to compare the diagnostic performance of dynamic and static adenosine-stress CTPs for detecting hemodynamically significant coronary stenosis. We prospectively enrolled 42 patients (mean age, 59.7 ± 8.8 years; 31 males) with ≥40% coronary artery stenosis. All patients underwent dynamic CTP for adenosine stress. The static CTP was simulated by choosing the seventh dynamic dataset after the initiation of the contrast injection. Diagnostic performance was compared with invasive fractional flow reserve (FFR) <0.8 as the reference. Of the 125 coronary vessels in 42 patients, 20 (16.0%) in 16 (38.1%) patients were categorized as hemodynamically significant. Dynamic and static CTP yielded similar diagnostic accuracy (90.4% vs 88.8% using visual analysis, P = .558; 77.6% vs 80.8% using quantitative analysis, P = .534; 78.4% vs 82.4% using combined visual and quantitative analyses, P = .426). The diagnostic accuracy of combined coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) and dynamic CTP (89.6% using visual analysis, P = .011; 88.8% using quantitative analysis, P = .018; 89.6% using combined visual and quantitative analyses, P = .011) and that of combined CCTA and static CTP (88.8% using visual analysis, P = .018; 90.4% using quantitative analysis, P = .006; 91.2% using combined visual and quantitative analyses, P = .003) were significantly higher than that of CCTA alone (77.6%). Dynamic CTP and static CTP showed similar diagnostic performance in the detection of hemodynamically significant stenosis.Copyright © 2022 the Author(s). Published by Wolters Kluwer Health, Inc.
