Send us a textProf. Stefan Neubauer and Dr. Thomas Nero discuss two recent papers on the utility of coronary inflammation imaging on CT coronary angiography with Fat Attenuation Index (FAI)FAI score. The ORFAN study demonstrated a 20 fold increased risk in CV event rates with low vs high FAI score and a 10 fold increased event rate in patients with elevated FAI score who have no coronary plaque. FAI score re-categorized 40% of patients in their follow-up studies.Prof. Neubauer is the he...
