Abstract
Severity of disease may be overestimated by cardiac surgeons when using CCTA as a decision-making test, tending toward more invasive treatment choices compared to CCA. Additionally, cardiac surgeons may be more confident with their diagnosis and treatment based on CCA. These may be important limitations in the application of CCTA in clinical practice and may reflect the maturation of CCTA use in practice, diffusion of the technology and/or a reflection of the technology itself.
