Brief Summary:
The purpose of this project is to examine the effectiveness of computed tomographic angiography CTA in patients with non-ST elevation acute coronary syndrome NSTE-ACS People who are hospitalized with this situation often require an angiogram to assess the heart and its arteries
Recent advancements in technology have enabled CTA to clearly define coronary artery anatomy with great accuracy and to guide treatment strategies in select patient populations We are investigating that CTA may be used as an alternative to conventional angiograms for the risk stratification of patients with high risk NSTE-ACS
Patients eligible for the study will be high risk NSTE-ACS and awaiting an angiogram Enrolled patients will undergo CTA prior to the angiogram With each CTA the patient will be injected with a small dose of an X-ray dye and will be asked to lie still on the scanning bed for a period of 5-10 minutes
