Overview
Brief Summary
The objective of this observational study is to evaluate the diagnostic effectiveness of magnetocardiography (MCG) in patients with stable coronary artery disease (SCAD) and compare it with coronary CTA (CCTA). Additionally, the study aims to determine the most suitable diagnostic index for MCG. The primary question it seeks to address is whether MCG or MCG combined with CCTA can be utilized to guide the clinical application of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for coronary heart disease.
Detailed Description
1. Patients aged≥18 years with stable coronary artery disease (CCTA stenosis 30%-90%) underwent sequential examinations of MCG and CCTA. The results of CCTA were assessed using CT-FFR, and the diagnostic effectiveness of MCG in evaluating myocardial ischemia was analyzed using CT-FFR as the reference standard. Simultaneously, MCG was compared to CCTA to determine the clinical value of MCG in the functional evaluation of myocardial ischemia. 2. Coronary angiography was performed in patients who met the criteria for the procedure, and revascularization was carried out based on the intraoperative situation. Patients who underwent revascularization were followed up for 1 year, with major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) as the endpoint. The clinical value of MCG in guiding the treatment of patients with SCAD was evaluated by reviewing the proportion of coronary angiography, revascularization, and MACE in the enrolled patients.

Primary Outcomes
Consistency in comparing MCG and CT-FFR
Time Frame: 1 year
Initially, MCG was conducted on each patient to assess the extent of myocardial ischemia using magnetic field distribution, pseudo-current density distribution, magnetic field intensity time spectrum line, and magnetic couple parameters. Simultaneously, the CT-FFR cut-off value of 0.8 was employed as the benchmark for this study. The agreement, sensitivity, specificity, and positive/negative predictive value of cardiac ischemia were compared between MCG and CT-FFR.
Secondary Outcomes
- Major Adverse Cardiac Events (MACE)(1 year)
