Comparison of Three Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease Risk Scores With and Without Coronary Calcium for Predicting Revascularization and Major Adverse Coronary Events in Symptomatic Patients Undergoing Positron Emission Tomography-Stress Testing

Atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) is the most important cause of morbidity and mortality nationally and internationally. Improving ASCVD risk prediction is a high clinical priority. We sought to determine which of 3 ASCVD risk scores best predicts the need for revascularization and incident major adverse coronary events (MACE) in symptomatic patients at low-to-intermediate primary ASCVD risk referred for regadenoson-stress positron...
