Abstract
Background: Severity and extent of coronary artery disease (CAD) assessed by Coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) guide treatment and may predict clinical outcome. Coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) has evolved as a logistically simple, accurate and low-risk non-invasive test primarily to rule out CAD with high negative predictive value. CTA also helps in assessing the other possible cause of typical and atypical chest pain, which is definitely an additional benefit over catheter angiography.
