Abstract
Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death worldwide. Diagnosis of cardiovascular diseases has many tests that are well established.

This chapter will discuss the utility of CCTA in CAD diagnosis and prognostication, patient selection, CCTA techniques, specific patient subgroups, and emerging applications such as CT perfusion and CT-derived fractional flow reserve.
