Paragangliomas are slowly growing benign tumours. In the head and neck region, the carotid body tumour is the most common type. The diagnosis is suspected from the patient’s history and physical examination. A somatostatin receptor scintigraphy is a reliable method for confirming the diagnosis and detecting multiple tumours at the same time. If the carotid body tumour is small and there is no documented growth, a wait-and-see policy is justified. A fast growing or large tumour should be treated surgically, cranial nerve dysfunction being the most common postoperative complication.

MSCT coronary angiography is a promising technique for the non-invasive visualisation of coronary arteries. Based on the current literature, it is expected to have a role in the diagnosis of acute coronary syndrome. Its capability to visualise coronary artery plaques will play a role in the targeting of culprit/vulnerable plaques.
