Brief Summary: It is crucial to rapidly identify cardiac ischemia in the care of patients with suspected acute coronary syndrome ACS Cardiac troponins are a major factor in the diagnostic of myocardial infarction New methods have been developed to improve the accuracy of the assay and determine low troponin concentrations Elecsys highly sensible T troponin TnT-HS assay is supposed to help early detection of myocardial infarction after onset of symptoms It should therefore shorten the transit time to emergencies by a more rapid intervention or a faster return home The aim of the study is to compare TnT-HS assay to the standard troponin assay in the detection of early cardiac ischemia in patients with ACS
Detailed Description: Patients with suspected ACS with 22 negative results of conventional troponin I assay and 13 positive result of highly sensitive troponin assay will have a non invasive cardiac Rb82 PETCT performed within 24 hours of admission This exam is recognized by Associations of cardiology for its high sensibility and specificity in coronary disease detection
