Dissemination

The Dissemination Committee will initiate, coordinate, and oversee all efforts for dissemination of the results. In this way, the efficient and consistent exploitation of the project will be ensured. International distribution of findings and raising awareness on outcomes to the health care workforce will be achieved by publication of the results in relevant, high-priority medical journals, presentations at congresses and meetings, and by enforcing collaboration with the professional societies. For the dissemination among policy makers and HTA bodies, the diffusion system of OSTEBA as member of HTA networks including EUnetHTA and INAHTA will be utilised. In summary, the DISCHARGE project will inform patients, health care providers, and decision-makers alike about the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of CT as the primary diagnostic imaging modality when evaluating stable chest pain symptoms suggesting an intermediate risk of coronary artery disease.
