Join speakers Professor Michelle Williams and Prof. Dr. Pál Maurovich-Horvat in discussing how a CT-first strategy improves outcomes for stable chest pain cardiac patients. Topics covered include implementation of a CT-first approach, the challenges facing Hospitals and how this differs in the UK and across Europe and where we see cardiac imaging developing with future technologies.
