Abstract Background Evaluation of acute chest pain (ACP) in the emergency department is a major health issue and differential diagnosis remains challenging for the physician, particularly in patients with atypical symptoms and inconclusive changes in electrocardiogram (ECG) or biomarkers levels. Case summary We present the potential value of the two-phase computed tomography angiography (TP-CTA) imaging protocol done in six different patients evaluated with ACP and underwent non-gated or gated computed tomography angiography (CTA) to exclude pulmonary embolism (PE), acute aortic syndrome (AAS), or acute coronary syndrome (ACS). All patients had new-onset chest pain and atypical clinical presentation with non-diagnostic ECG and initially negative or near-normal cardiac biomarkers. Discussion The evaluation of myocardial computed tomography perfusion (MCTP) using TP-CTA imaging protocol might open a new diagnostic approach to evaluate MCTP in patients with ACP related to PE, AAS, or ACS.
