First seen Jun 27, 2026 ยท Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study looks at whether adding a stress CT scan that checks blood flow to the heart muscle helps doctors decide the best treatment for people with known or suspected heart disease. About 2000 adults will be followed to see if this extra test reduces the need for more tests and leads to better outcomes. The goal is to find out if the combined approach is cost-effective and improves patient care.
