Excited to share the first time ever 🥁 "Sex-Specific CAC Percentiles Across South Asian Adults in U.S." 65% of men and 30% of women have CAC >0 by 55 ~75th percentile for 55yo SA men or 65yo SA women is absolute CAC score of 100 link: bit.ly/43l9TOw @JACCJournals
A new frontier for imaging is emerging—how to apply #CCTA to improve #PCI outcomes, with reduced procedure time and radiation exposure. Read the new expert opinion from leaders in cardiac imaging and #InterventionalCardiology➡️ doi.org/10.1016/j.jsca… @Heart_SCCT @yadersandoval
South Asian data are absent in #ASCVD risk-derivation cohorts; Tasdighi et al. addressed this notable gap by describing sex-specific coronary artery calcium scores in an exclusively South Asian population. Read an expert analysis for more ➡️ bit.ly/4kQhAmF #cvPrev
