Overview
Differential Diagnosis
While Type 1 SCAD has a pathognomonic appearance on angiography, Type 2 may be and Type 3 typically is indistinguishable from atherosclerosis. Risk factors and patient history may help determine diagnosis. Intracoronary imaging provides the most objective tool in differentiating between SCAD and atheroma.[1]
