• CT-based evaluation of coronary stent patency is limited by stent-induced artifacts and spatial resolution. • Ultra-high-resolution photon-counting detector CT accurately evaluates coronary stent patency compared to invasive coronary angiography. • Photon-counting detector CT represents a promising method for the non-invasive rule-out of in-stent stenosis.
