A Meta-analysis of 64-section Coronary CT Angiography Findings for Predicting 30-day Major Adverse Cardiac Events in Patients Presenting with Symptoms Suggestive of Acute Coronary Syndrome

Sixty-four section CCTA had a 99.3% negative predictive value in excluding MACE for 30 days after initial symptom presentation in 85.2% of our study population. Although the value of 64-section CCTA is best for identifying patients who can safely be discharged home, it is less useful for patients who have positive results.
