Imaging diabetes mellitus with coronary
computed tomography angiography,
cardiovascular magnetic resonance, and
positron emission tomography
The prevalence and medical expense associated with diabetes mellitus continue to increase.
Using the diagnostic imaging techniques of coronary computed tomography angiography,
cardiovascular magnetic resonance, and positron emission tomography, it may be possible to
make earlier, non-invasive diagnoses of the type and extent of disease, thereby preventing or
delaying some morbidity and mortality.
