Can we rely on atherosclerotic imaging outside of the coronary arteries to infer coronary risk? Or is it essential to exclusively evaluate atherosclerosis within the coronary arterial tree as the indicator for risk?

In a 40-year-old male patient with intermediate risk, what's the best predictor of coronary events: carotid IMT or CT calcium score?

An asymptomatic young male patient is concerned about his risk following his brother's sudden cardiac death. When his CT shows 90% stenosis in the proximal LAD caused by noncalcified plaque, what do you do?

Join Drs Mario Garcia, João Lima and Jeroen Bax as they discuss these scenarios, review the findings of the latest imaging studies, and apply them to real clinical dilemmas
