A Coronary CT Angiogram is the only noninvasive way to see the potentially vulnerable noncalcified plaque that can cause Heart Attacks and Death
The recent LOCATE study illustrates more lipid lowering medications (statins and PCSK9 inhibitors) result in better vulnerable atherosclerotic plaque reduction in the heart. A low dose of the lipid lowering medications results in minor reduction of non-calcified (potentially vulnerable) plaque and high doses eliminate potentially vulnerable atherosclerotic plaque.
Heart Health Statistics

Heart disease is the leading cause of death in men and women in the US.
Coronary artery disease is treatable.
Heart disease is the #1 cause of death in the United States. It is often preventable by taking a single medication. A simple CT scan can determine if you or a loved one are at risk for a heart attack or sudden death.
