CTP, when combined with CCTA, presents the potential for full functional and anatomic assessment with a single modality. CCT is a useful adjunct in select patients to both TTE and CMR in the evaluation of ventricular volumes and systolic function. Newer applications, such as dynamic CTP and DECT, are promising diagnostic tools offering the possibility of more quantitative assessment of ischemia. The superior spatial resolution and volumetric acquisition of CCT has an important role in the diagnosis of other nonischemic causes of cardiomyopathies.
