It is a specialized CT scan that produces detailed images of the coronary arteries, the blood vessels that supply the heart muscle. CCTA is most commonly used to evaluate possible coronary artery disease in people with symptoms such as chest discomfort or shortness of breath. It is also used in selected patients to clarify risk and guide next diagnostic steps."}
