syndrome– pulmonary embolism– Acute aortic syndrome– Other Causes of Chest pain• Pneumonia• Pleurisy• musculoskeletal

Definition of ACS
• Constellation of clinical symptoms that are compatible with acute myocardial ischemia– STEMI – NSTEMI– Unstable Angina (UA)

Classic Initial Approach
• Detailed patient history • Physical examination• ECG• Measurement of cardiac biomarkers.

![Page 6: Role of mdct angio in management of acute chest pain Dr. Muhammad Bin Zulfiqar](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022051502/58f9b1b2760da3da068bc361/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Thrombosis in Myocardial Infarction (TIMI) risk score
One point to each the following risk factors: 1. Age greater than 65 years2. known coronary artery disease (documented
previous coronary artery stenosis > 50%)3. Severe angina (more than two episodes of
chest pain in the preceding 24 hours)4. St segment changes (persistent depression
or transient elevation) on admission ECG

Thrombosis in Myocardial Infarction (TIMI) risk score
5. Elevated serum markers of myocardial ischemia (troponins)
6. Use of aspirin in the 7 days before presentation
7. Three or more conventional risk factors for coronary artery disease – (family history, diabetes mellitus, hypertension,
hypercholesterolemia, smoking).

Risk Factor Stratification
• High risk (TIMI score, 5–7) – usually are referred without delay for urgent
coronary angiography and intervention• Intermediate risk (TIMI score, 3–4)• Low risk (TIMI score, 0–2) – Admitted for observation and undergo serial ECG
and cardiac biomarker testing followed by stress testing.

Markedly elevated calcium score
• (Right) Axial image at a slightly lower level demonstrates calcification in the LAD, circumflex, and RCA. Mild calcification is also identified in the posterior mitral annulus (arrowhead). (Left) Calcium in the three major coronary arteries is color-coded. The mitral annular calcification is labeled in pink and is not included in the calcium score. The total Agatston calcium of 2726.1 is markedly elevated, suggesting increased risk for a coronary event.

Pitfalls In MDCT Cardiac Imaging
• Image quality suffers from fast heart rate– Requires premedication with β-blockers
• Arrhythmias, ectopy, or ECG artifacts result in degradation of image quality– ECG-gating critical to coronary imaging
• Radiation dose to patient• Provides anatomic information, and debates
about physiologic data

Take Home Message
• Provides excellent spatial resolution provides superior information of anatomy
• Provides functional information through blood perfused volume and stress protocols
• Ability for plaque analysis• Appropriate use of Triple-Rule-Out Protocol can
explore other differential diagnoses for chest pain• MDCT imaging protocols incorporated into ACS
workup demonstrates savings in time to diagnosis, costs while providing good patient outcomes
