All athletes who coached based on IOC president Thomas Bach should be investigated by the World Anti-Doping Agency.
Salazar, the former trainer of Britains Mo Farah, was this week found guilty of doping violations after a four-year evaluation by the US Anti-Doping Agency (Usada).
The choice against Salazar, 61, came after a two-year court struggle.
Bach stated the case isvery stressing and raises serious concerns.
Speaking at a news conference on Thursday, Bach said:Were convinced that Wada will appear in to this situation very carefully and will follow up on queries which continue following this report.
The IOC may compose a letter to Wada inside this respect.
On what he will be requesting Wada, Bach added:To determine how many athletes have been investigated. Have all of the athletes been investigated whove been training in this centre?
Does the report address the whole length of the existence of the undertaking or only a part of it?
Can any Olympic consequences directly or indirectly be impacted?
We heard from the report which the athletes wouldnt have known what happened to them this can be a significant element when looking at sanctions but disqualification is required whether the athlete knows or not.
We are very convinced that Wada is looking at this anyway so were waiting for the advice from Wada in this respect
In a statement, Wada explained:Wada notes the decisions passed down in the instances of Alberto Salazar and Jeffrey Brown in relation to their participation from the Nike Oregon Project. As always, Wada will review all facets of this instance.
We will anticipate the IOCs correspondence but we cant comment publicly until we have reviewed the situation in full.
Salazar, whos said hell appeal the judgement, conducts the Nike Oregon Project – house into four-time Olympic champion Farah from 2011 till 2017.
The 36-year-old Farah, plus a six-time world champion, said:Im relieved that Usada has, after four years, completed their investigation into Alberto Salazar.
I left the Nike Oregon Project at 2017 but, as Ive always stated, I have no tolerance for anyone who violates the rules or crosses a line. I am glad there has been a conclusion.
The Briton has always strongly denied violating any rules and has never failed a drugs test.
UK Athletics cleared Farah to remain together with the Nike Oregon Project, although allegations from Salazar surfaced in 2015.
