THE DIAGNOSTIC PERFORMANCE OF CORONARY COMPUTED TOMOGRAPHIC ANGIOGRAPHY COMPARED WITH INVASIVE CORONARY ANGIOGRAPHY IN SYMPTOMATIC PATIENTS LONG-TERM PROGNOSTIC IMPLICATIONS

Objective: We aimed to investigate the diagnostic accuracy of 64-multidetector coronary computed tomographic angiogra-phy (CCTA) for stable symptomatic patients and evaluate the relationship between severity of coronary artery disease (CAD), cardiovascular risk scores, and coronary artery calcium (CAC) scores. We also assessed the possible predictors of all-cause mortality at a median of 10 years of follow-up
