Role of Spectral CT in the Diagnosis of Myocarditis/MINOCA in Patients Undergoing cardioCT Investigations for Acute Chest Pain
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 3 Feb 2025 · Not updated for over 12 months - ask the site whether it is still open
Brief summary (registry, in English)
It is a spontaneous, observational cross-sectional and single-center imaging (CT and MRI) study, coupled with clinical-laboratory data. Patients with acute chest pain with low/intermediate probability of coronary artery disease, ECG and/or troponin not diagnostic or altered according to the current "standards of care" used in the ED/Department (ESC Guidelines 2020), will be enrolled consecutively and will undergo CT examinations by means of "Spectral" CT technology. CT investigation will allow to identify any non-myocarditis causes of acute chest pain and by means of spectral analysis of CT images it will try to identify signs suggestive of damage myocardial (such as ECV, LIE, hyperemia and edema).

Built from the registry fields of ClinicalTrials.gov. It describes the study, not your situation.
Who cannot take part
Copied verbatim from ClinicalTrials.gov and grouped by topic. Only the trial team decides who can take part.
Lab values
- Absolute contraindications to CT examination and/or iodinated mdc administration (i.e. pregnancy, severe renal impairment in non-dialysis patients with GFR \< 15-30 ml/min/1.73m2 );
Other
- CT examinations that do not allow diagnostic information to be provided because they are assessed as quality too scarce and not interpretable (affected by artifacts such as motion artifacts)
Who the study is looking for
- Age greater than or equal to 18 years;
- patients with acute chest pain and indication for triple-rule-out CT or coronary CT examination, i.e. low/intermediate probability of acute coronary artery disease, ECG and/or troponin not diagnostic or altered;
- Obtaining informed consent
Age in the registry: 18 years to - · Sex: All · Does not accept healthy volunteers
