In this episode of CardioBuzz, we delve into the comprehensive evaluation of patients presenting with chest pain, focusing on differentiating cardiac from non-cardiac causes. We discuss the evolution of understanding coronary artery disease, structural and functional abnormalities, diagnostic tests like ECG, echo, nuclear scans, CT scans, MRI, and stress tests. Learn how to assess the clinical likelihood of coronary disease using a combination of symptom analysis, risk factors, and imaging modalities, and understand the guidelines on when to proceed with invasive angiography. Join us for an in-depth discussion and stay updated with the latest practices in cardiology. • 00:19 Understanding Coronary Artery Disease • 02:10 Analyzing Chest Pain: History and Initial Tests • 04:09 Evaluating Angina and Risk Factors • 05:33 Modern Approaches to Chest Pain Classification • 07:41 Initial Evaluation and Risk Assessment • 15:02 Choosing the Right Imaging Test • 16:34 Exercise Testing: Pros and Cons • 18:12 Coronary CT Angiography • 19:40 Stress Echocardiography • 21:17 Nuclear Scans and PET CT • 23:21 Cardiac MRI • 24:28 Combining Anatomical and Functional Imaging • 27:14 Invasive Angiography • 28:52 Conclusion
