Ct angiogram images seem unclear
7 months ago, I had a CT angiogram (192-slice Siemens Dual Source) The radiologist said it was normal, but the printed images looked blurry with some artifacts. During the scan, I struggled to hold my breath and had a heart rate around 80-82 bpm, which caused some difficulty
I’ve shown the images to two cardios , and both felt the image quality was acceptable. Still, I’m anxious because online scans of arteries look much clearer.
should I be concerned or trust the report with no doubt

What you are concerned is the 3D reconstruction of the CT image. CT images would be sufficient to tell that it is normal and I think you can trust your doctor on the report.
