A CT coronary angiography (CTCA) is a scan that takes pictures of the coronary arteries of a beating heart. A liquid contrast agent is injected into a vein in the arm to increase the density of the blood in the vessels, which allow the inside and outside structure of the blood vessels to be seen more clearly on the CT scan.
It is NOT an invasive coronary angiogram.
