While there is so much established about CAC..

for @Heart_SCCT Prevention Symposium, I was asked by @RonBlankstein to talk about

"what's next for CAC Testing in 2021 (and beyond)?"

What are the main applications in the future?

#1 CAC has come a long way
-evolving to the needs of the past decade from screening test to a SDM tool
-best tie breaker, adding the dimension of de-risking
-cost-effective and reassuring ok to avoid treatment
-cautiously approved by ACC/AHA guidelines

we need to think beyond what the future may hold for CAC testing.

While I have a list of at least 10 applications, I will share today the top 5 immediate future roles for CAC testing
