CT or Invasive Coronary Angiography in Stable Chest Pain The DISCHARGE Trial
In this multicenter trial, 3561 patients with stable chest pain at intermediate risk for obstructive coronary artery disease were randomly assigned to undergo CT or invasive coronary angiography. Over 3.5 years of follow-up, there was no significant between-group difference in the risk of major adverse cardiovascular events. Major procedure-related complications were less common with CT.
