Mashup Score: 5Navigating Cardiovascular Risk Assessment in Older Patients: Insights From Coronary Artery Calcium Scoring - American College of Cardiology - 2 month(s) ago
In individuals ≥75 years of age, interpreting coronary artery calcium (CAC) scores is challenging for clinicians because most may have CAC scores > 100 without clinical coronary artery disease (CAD). Approximately 10-20% of individuals ≥75 years of age have a CAC score of 0 and are at low risk of developing CAD. Although the CAC score is a promising tool for patients ≥75 years of age, its practical application in guiding treatment decisions is yet to be defined. Ongoing research efforts, including the
