About this trial

Coronary CT angiography (CCTA) is increasingly used for ischemic heart disease diagnosis. The rising number of CCTA tests has led to a significant increase in the number of finding unexpected incidental extracardiac diseases.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Adult patients ho underwent CCTA

Disqualifiers

None

Trial population

1. All adult patients who underwent CCTA for chest pain diagnosis. 2. Scans will be reviewed seeking the presence of coronary non atherosclerotic disease in the coronaries, cardiac structure and non cardiac structures.

Trial design

Design model
