Abstract
The pattern of non-O-CAD was the most commonly detected by CTA in new onset chest pain patients at intermediate risk of CAD, either using functional plus anatomical approach or anatomical approach alone. Moreover, the improved certainty in the diagnosis of non-O-CAD by CTA allowed to avoid unnecessary ICA or functional tests in these patients. However, the cost-effectiveness of this strategy in real world remains to be determined.
