Who uses CCTA more: radiologists or cardiologists?
By Abraham Kim
Thursday, November 30 | 11:40 a.m.-11:50 a.m. | SSQ02-08 | Room S502ABThe ongoing tug-of-war between radiologists and cardiologists may be starting to favor one end: Radiologists now utilize coronary CT angiography (CCTA) at a higher rate than cardiologists do, according to this presentation.
