Cardiac imaging is increasingly used in the workup of coronary artery disease, with growth greatest for CCTA and with falling use of SPECT.

In this interview, Jonathan R. Weir-McCall, PhD, and Christopher M. Kramer, MD, FACC, discuss From JACC: National Trends in Coronary Artery Disease Imaging: Associations With Health Care Outcomes and Costs.
