Multidetector-row computed tomography (MDCT) can provide crucial information and rapid triage of emergency department patients with suspected acute coronary syndrome (ACS) or acute aortic syndrome (AAS). Coronary computed tomography angiography has high negative predictive value to rule out ACS, and MDCT is diagnostic for AAS and its variants. Optimization of acquisition technique and up-to-date knowledge of the pathophysiology of these conditions can improve study and interpretation quality for diagnosis of ACS or AAS.
