Coronary computed tomography angiography in the evaluation of acute chest pain in patients with elevated high sensitive cardiac troponin I (hs-cTn) level

Aims CCTA is a well-established and safe imaging modality for the diagnosis of CAD and is gate keeping for invasive coronary angiography (ICA). We aimed to examine CCTA performance in patients presenting with ACP and dynamic hs-cTn elevation compatible with MI but not exceeding 7 folds of the URL. We also examined the performance of GRACE and PTP consortium scores in this population of patients.
