Scan could spot hidden heart trouble before It's too late
NCT ID NCT03952351
Summary
This study aims to see if a special heart scan can find hidden heart disease in people who went to the hospital with chest pain but were sent home after tests ruled out a heart attack. Researchers will use a CT scan to look for problems in patients who have low levels of a heart protein called troponin. The goal is to identify people at risk of a future heart attack so they can get preventive care.
