Comparison of SYNTAX scores between coronary CT angiography and invasive coronary angiography: a systematic review and meta-analysis

Key Points

• SYNTAX scores differ significantly between the two angiography methods, highlighting potential diagnostic inconsistencies.
• The analysis includes data from over 2000 patients, emphasizing extensive variability in assessment.
• Systematic review and meta-analysis dissect the accuracy of non-invasive and invasive imaging techniques for coronary arteries.
• Findings may influence future guidelines on using coronary CT angiography in assessing coronary artery disease.
