NCT02828761 · Status: WITHDRAWN · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL

Last updated 2023-09-15

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

This research asks whether coronary calcium scoring, a non-invasive test based on computed tomography scanning, is a better way to diagnose chest pain patients than other currently used methods. Three of four patients will undergo calcium scoring and the remaining patients will receive standard care.

Conditions

Interventions

DEVICE

Coronary Calcium Scoring

Scan with 64-detector row or better CT scanners with quantification by the Agatston method.

PROCEDURE

Standard Care

Routine clinical monitoring of chest pain patients. Any of a number of non-invasive cardiac tests such as coronary CT angiography, stress echocardiography and stress radionuclide myocardial perfusion imaging may be performed.
