In this study the investigators retrospectively and prospectively collect information from enrolled subjects undergoing CCTA and evaluate the association of cardiac and non-cardiac imaging with laboratory markers and clinical data including outcome.
In this study the investigators retrospectively and prospectively collect information from enrolled subjects through a period of a total of 10 years to evaluate multidimensional associations between phenotypic manifestations of cardiovascular disease via CCTA and cardiac and non-cardiac imaging, serum biomarkers, demographic and clinical information, clinical presentation (cross-sectional), therapy changes (time-varying) and their ability to predict mortality and MACE (major adverse cardiac event ) (longitudinal) in patients clinically indicated for CCTA. The aim is to establish a comprehensive cross-sectional, time-varying and longitudinal data collection for individuals undergoing clinically-indicated CCTA to date in order to apply novel multiparametric approaches to determine cardiovascular significance to clinically-important patient-centered events. For data collection this registry will follow a standard CRF (case report form) structure, so to enable the merging of this data-set with other international registries, which might contribute in overcoming some gaps of knowledge from previous CCTA studies.
