The role of coronary computed tomographic angiography (CCTA) versus functional testing is not clear:
- The SCOT-HEART trial in 2015 did not find clear statistical evidence of benefit anlthought there was a trend towards less cardiac outcomes among patients who received CTA[1][2]
- The PROMISE trial in 2015 did not find benefit[2]
- A meta-analysis in 2018 that included the SCOT-HEART and PROMISE trials found not benefit[3]
- Subsequent publication of longer term follow-up of the SCOT-HEART trial found cardiac benefit[4]
CCTA may best benefit patients with intermediate risk[5].
