Summary

To evaluate the safety and effectiveness of computed tomography angiography in the diagnostic and therapeutic cycle as the first-choice method of imaging in the diagnosis of patients with a high probability of stable coronary artery disease according to European Society of Cardiology recommendations.

Detailed description

A prospective, randomized open-label, single center trial to evaluate superiority of angio-CT to a classic coronary angiography (concerning effectiveness and safety) in the diagnosis of stable coronary artery disease in patients with indications for invasive coronary angiography.

Conditions

• Coronary Artery Disease
