Can coronary CT detect myocardial ischemia?

Coronary CT angiography can check the coronary artery vascular conditions, observe whether there is blockage, plaque, stenosis and other phenomena, can rule out coronary artery disease, can assist in the diagnosis of myocardial ischemia, but can not be diagnosed. Because myocardial ischemia is a physiological and pathological process caused by myocardial blood supply and oxygen deficiency, it is not a disease. If it is necessary to diagnose myocardial ischemia, it should be further examined by cardiac auscultation, blood pressure measurement, ECG, cardiac ultrasound, cardiac CT, etc.
