Brief Summary:
In patients with chest pain andor shortness of breath coronary artery disease CAD is suspected depending on the pattern of symptoms and the electrocardiogram ECG Coronary angiography is the method of choice to verify this suspicion If the patient coronary arteries on coronary angiography are totally normal or unobstructed one can only speculate if the patients discomfort is from the heart or not A possibility to get further information about the healthiness of the coronary arteries is the acetylcholine test ACH-test When injecting this natural body produced-substance into the coronary arteries one can test if the vessels develop coronary spasm which can be the reason for the patients symptoms The investigators therefore use this test in this study to look for coronary spasm in patients with suspected CAD but normalunobstructed coronary arteries In case of a positive test the patient profits from having found a cause for hisher symptoms making treatment with special tablets possible Furthermore the investigators want to analyze blood samples of every patient to look for signs of inflammation vasoconstriction and genetic variants that seem to be linked with coronary spasms On the basis of these results the ACH-test could probably be avoided in the future
