Recognized as a Class 1A recommendation per the
ACC/AHA Chest Pain Guidelines, Coronary CTA is the preferred modality of assessing suspected CAD in intermediate-risk patients with no known CAD. FFRCT received a 2a recommendation to support the further evaluation of patients with a coronary artery disease of uncertain physiologic significance.
Coronary CTA has demonstrated a significant improvement in accuracy compared to other noninvasive methods for detecting CAD. Improvements diagnostic sensitivity and specificity result in less false positives and negatives, supporting a more confident diagnosis.
CCTA+Heartflow diagnostic testing strategies have been prospectively evaluated in large clinical trials, establishing significant reductions in cardiac-related events while improving preventative medication utilization rates.
