NCT02904239

Brief Summary

Modern high-end CT scanners with faster scan acquisition times now allow for routine assessment of cardiac pathologies, which could result in numerous incidental cardiac findings on standard thoracic CT angiography (CTA) scans. The CaPaCT-study aims to assesses the presence, management and possible clinical impact of incidental cardiac pathologies which are becoming visible on standard thoracic CT scans performed on new high-end scanners.
