Contemporary management of chest pain: a focus on non-invasive imaging
Chiara Bucciarelli-Ducci, London / United Kingdom
Cardiologist describing the typical chest pain patients and how they are managed in clinical routine.

•Why: Patient numbers increase year on year?

•Non-invasive imaging now included in international guidelines -> Is there already an impact of the new guidelines regarding the numbers/volume of non-invasive diagnosis?

•Patient journey/flow and how this is organized at the HCPs’ hospital

•Introduce 2 patients that need diagnosis and treatment: one that requires a cCTA and one CMR

15 min
Enhancing CAD Diagnosis in Intermediate Risk Patients: added value of multimodality imaging
Marco Francone, Milan / Italy
cCTA patient case (patient with intermediate risk and suspected CAD has a cCTA which confirms CAD)

•highlight diagnostic accuracy of cCTA, diagnosing CAD

•showcase seamless workflow: Bayer supports with CME, injectors and WFS software that saves resources and increases image quality for efficient and fast patient diagnosis

•ideally showcase how the Bayer portfolio has made an impact in clinical life to support cCTA as a routine test

•answer final question: How can personalized cardiac CT successfully be established as a clinical routine diagnostic test?

15 min
Unlocking Cardiac MRI's Diagnostic Potential: Uncover the underlaying reasons for chest pain.
Matthias Gutberlet, Leipzig / Germany
CMR patient case (patient with suspected myocarditis gets CMR, which confirms it is NOT myocarditis but old back wall infarction. Needs another cCTA which confirms occluded coronaries)

•Focus on benefits of CMR: challenges and advantages

•Highlight seamless workflow (use ESCR registry data): Gadovist and MRXp -> Gadacad and ESCR registry

•Answer final question: How can personalized cardiac MR successfully be established as a clinical routine diagnostic test?
