Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This observational study aims to gather a large population of patients suspected of having coronary artery disease (CAD) who have undergone Computed Tomography Coronary Angiography (CTCA). The researchers will assess the additional value of CTCA in determining the prevalence of obstructive and non-obstructive disease and in predicting patient prognosis. By analyzing anonymized data from institutional databases, the study will evaluate the reliability of CTCA in defining cardiovascular risk and the burden of disease over a minimum follow-up period of 12 months.
