    You clearly didn't read the article and just relied on the editorial for your information. The research was overall positive for CCTA, showing equal cost and less time in the ED.

    The editorial was written by known adversary to cardiac imaging tests and who has strong financial ties to BCBS, the only major payer who doesn't cover CCTA. You've fallen trap to a biased editorial.

    You are doing a disservice to the public by relying on an editorial for your facts. You should actually review the peer-reviewed literature yourself. A quick google of other reviews of the same news shows that the vast majority of the dozen articles written on this topic actually show this study as a positive development.

    I encourage you to pull this story and consider a re-write.
