Background Coronary CT angiography (cCTA) is a class 1 recommendation in the current guidelines by the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) for excluding significant coronary artery stenosis. To achieve optimal image quality at a low radiation dose, the imaging physician may choose different acquisition modes. Therefore, the consensus guidelines by the Society of Cardiovascular Computed Tomography (SCCT) provide helpful guidance for this procedure.  Method The article provides practical recommendations for the application and acquisition of cCTA based on the current literature and our own experience.  Results and Conclusion According to current ESC guidelines, cCTA is recommended in symptomatic patients with a low or intermediate clinical likelihood for coronary artery disease. We recommend premedication with beta blockers and nitrates prior to CT acquisition under certain conditions even with the latest CT scanner generations. The most current CT scanners offer three possible scan modes for cCTA acquisition. Heart rate is the main factor for selecting the scan mode. Other factors may be coronary calcifications and body mass index (BMI).  Key Points:   Citation Format
