Cost Effectiveness and Utility of Coronary Artery Computed Tomography Angiography (CTA) in Screening for Coronary Artery Disease


This is a research study to determine patient preferences between two different diagnostic
tests; a CT angiogram (CTA) and a catheter angiogram, both of which are used at the
University to screen for and detect heart disease.


This is a single site study that will retrospectively and prospectively identify and enroll
100 subjects, both male and female, 18 years of age and older who undergo both coronary
angiography and coronary artery computed tomography (CT), using the electronic radiology and
cardiology databases. The purpose is to conduct a survey to assess their preference for
either test to diagnose coronary artery disease. Subjects should be within six months of
having the tests to avoid memory and recall problems.

Inclusion Criteria:

- Subjects who have had both CTA and Coronary angiogram.

- 18 years old and older.

Exclusion Criteria:

- Under 18 years of age

- Memory Impairment:

- Stroke

- Traumatic brain Injury

- Dementia
