Statin-Induced Decade-Long Stabilization of Noncalcified Coronary Plaque Despite a Zero Calcium Score

Key Points

• Patient monitoring led to stabilized noncalcified coronary plaque over a decade, despite zero calcium scores.
• Key evidence indicates that measurements were derived from AI-quantified CCTA imaging.
• Analysis included assessment of subclinical atherosclerosis related to plaque-directed therapy.
• The findings highlight the need for alternative monitoring techniques in coronary health, given the limitations of calcium scoring.
