A study of over 70,000 asymptomatic individuals reveals insights into coronary artery calcification (CAC) distribution and progression, suggesting implications for assessment intervals and optimal testing age.
High prevalence of zero CAC in asymptomatic adults.
Minimal progression of CAC in participants with baseline CAC=0.
Younger women show very low prevalence of subclinical atherosclerosis.
Older subgroups (men ≥40, women ≥50) with baseline CAC=0 exhibit slow progression.
Determining optimal assessment intervals for CAC.
Identifying the ideal testing age for CAC.
