Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the effectiveness of the virtual 360° counselling environment in the anxiety and process time of the patients coming to CCTA (coronary computed tomography angiography). The virtual, 360° environment 'Virtual 360°-tour in coronary computed tomography' uses 360°- technology based on spherical panorama images and resembles the spaces of the hospital according to the patient's pathway in CT-examination and provides information to the patient at various stages of the pathway.

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the effectiveness of the virtual 360° counselling environment in the anxiety and process time of the patients coming to CCTA (coronary computed tomography angiography).

The virtual, 360° environment 'Virtual 360°-tour in coronary computed tomography' uses 360°- technology based on spherical panorama images and resembles the spaces of the hospital according to the patient's pathway in CT-examination and provides information to the patient at various stages of the pathway. Patients who have referred first time to the coronary computed tomography can access the virtual CT examination environment via link before entering the hospital. Using the environment requires a network connection and is possible with a computer, tablet or phone. The environment has digital counselling materials in text, image, animation and video formats in three different virtual spaces/views, the environment and examination are presented via pathway of example 59-year female patient with arterial hypertension and exercise related chest pain (angina pectoris).
