Conventional coronary angiography (CCA) is the gold standard in the diagnosis of cardiac allograft vasculopathy (CAV) in heart transplant recipients. Dobutamine stress echocardiography (DSE) is a useful technique for screening. Dual-source computed tomography (DSCT) is the last generation of computed tomography scanners, which could be useful to noninvasively assess CAV. Thirty cardiac transplant recipients underwent DSE and DSCT coronary angiogram. Exclusion criteria were as follows: renal insufficiency, iodinated contrast media allergy, less than 12 months since transplant, and unstable clinical conditions. DSE showed ischemia in two patients. At DSCT scan 13 patients had a normal angiogram, 13 ones wall thickening and four significant di...
