From: Myocardial infarction with normal coronary arteries: a case report and review of the literature
Coronary computed tomography angiography shows absence of flow limiting stenosis in both left (1a) and right (1b) coronary circulation. A tri-dimensional data set was reformatted using the maximum intensity projection technique. In Figure 1a, the image was taken along the anterior interventricular plane, allowing fine analysis of the left main as well as the left anterior descending coronary artery. A maximum intensity projection view also allows partial assessment of the origin of the right coronary artery and the first diagonal branch. Figure 1b: an image acquired along the right atrio-ventricular groove; the maximum intensity projection image clearly depicts the right circumflex artery up to the inferior portion.
