Official Title: The "Virtual" Multicenter Spontaneous Coronary Artery Dissection (SCAD) Registry

Brief Summary:

The primary goal of this project is to describe the clinical and physiologic characteristics of Spontaneous Coronary Artery Dissections (SCAD) in order to increase awareness, understanding, treatment and prevention of a potentially fatal cardiovascular event.

This study will be a retrospective and prospective review of medical course and current health of men and women with SCAD.

A prospective sub-study of echocardiographic findings after SCAD that includes perfusion imaging (Lumason contrast) is available to patients who are evaluated at Mayo Clinic, Rochester, MN. A separate consent process is included as part of this sub-study.
