High CORADS is it Risk Factor for Acute Coronary Syndrome?

Background: COVID-19 Reporting and Data System (CO-RADS) is another initiative for standardization, published in mid-March of 2020, which differs from the RSNA's approach as it is based in previous efforts such as Lung-RADS, PI-RADS, and BI-RADS, which grades the findings on how likely the diagnosis of COVID-19 is.Also, the attention of the clinician to acute coronary syndromes (ACS) in a patient with a background of SARS-CoV-2 infection, in addition to classic risk factors, should be aimed at assessing the mechanisms involved in the development of Type 2 myocardial infarction (MI) as well as the presence of vasospasm.Aim and Objectives: To determine the risk of cardiac insults in patients with high CORADS detected in C.T chest.Subjects and Methods: This study was conducted on 100 patients diagnosed with acute coronary syndrome referred to Tanta University Hospitals, Cardiovascular Department within 6 months starting from November 2021.Result: Our results, positive respiratory symptoms and CO-RADS were significantly associated with the incidence of STEMI and NSTEMI.So, the risk of cardiac insults increases in patients with high CORADS detected in C.T chest.Conclusion: We conclude that positive respiratory symptoms and CO-RADS were significantly associated with the incidence of acute coronary syndrome (ACS).So, the risk of cardiac insults increases in patients with high CORADS detected in C.T chest.
