심장 전산화단층촬영은 비약적인 기술발전과 다양한 연구 결과를 바탕으로 심혈관위험 계층화와 치료 결정을 위한 관상동맥 질환의 진단과 예후 평가성능이 입증되었다. 전산화단층촬영 관상동맥조영술은 폐쇄성 관상동맥 질환에 대한 음성 예측도가 높아서 침습적 혈관조영술의 빈도를 줄일 수 있는 관상동맥 질환 관련 검사의 관문으로 부상했지만, 진단특이도가 상대적으로 낮다. 하지만 심장 전산화단층촬영을 이용한 분획혈류예비력과 심근관류를 분석하여 관상동맥 질환의 혈역학적 유의성을 확인하는 기능적 평가를 통해 그 한계를 극복할 수 있다. 최근에는 이를 보다 객관적이고 재현 가능하도록 인공지능을 접목하는 연구들이 활발히 진행되고 있다. 본 종설에서는 심장 전산화단층촬영의 기능적 영상화 기법들에 대해 알아보고자 한다.

Background: There are several modalities of coronary artery revascularization for multivessel coronary artery disease. Hybrid coronary revascularization (HCR) with minimally invasive direct coronary artery bypass grafting was introduced for high-risk patients, and recently, many centers have been using it. Limited incisional full sternotomy coronary artery bypass (LIFCAB) involves left internal thoracic artery (LITA)-to-left anterior descending coronary artery (LAD) anastomosis through a sternotomy with a minimal skin incision; it could be considered another technique for minimally invasive LITA-to-LAD anastomosis. Our center has performed HCR using LIFCAB, and in this paper, we report our short-term results, obtained in the past 3 years. Methods: The medical records of 38 patients from May 2010 to June 2013 were analyzed retrospectively. The observation period after HCR was 1 to 37 months (average, $18.3{\pm}10.3$ months). The patency of revascularization was confirmed with postoperative coronary angio-computerized tomography or coronary angiography. Results: There were 3 superficial wound complications, but no mortalities. All the LITA-to-LAD anastomoses were patent in the immediate postoperative and follow-up studies, but stenosis was detected in 3 cases of percutaneous coronary intervention. Conclusion: HCR using LIFCAB is safe and yields satisfactory results from the viewpoint of revascularization for multivessel disease.
