Randomized Controlled Trial Multicenter StudyUse of coronary artery calcium scanning beyond coronary computed tomographic angiography in the emergency department evaluation for acute chest pain: the ROMICAT II trial.

We sought to determine the value of CAC scan in patients with acute chest pain undergoing CCTA. ⋯ http://www.clinicaltrials.gov. Unique identifier: NCT01084239.
