Diagnostic Accuracy of CT Coronary Angiography Versus Exercise Treadmill Test for Detection of Coronary Artery Disease in Diabetic Patients

Key Points

• The aim is to compare the diagnostic accuracy of CT coronary angiography and exercise treadmill testing in detecting coronary artery disease among diabetic patients.
• Comparison of CT coronary angiography and exercise treadmill testing.
• Invasive coronary angiography used as the gold standard.
• Participants included diabetic patients.
• CT coronary angiography showed higher sensitivity than exercise treadmill testing.
• Specificity rates favored exercise treadmill testing.
• Invasive angiography confirmed the diagnoses in both testing modalities.
