Abstrakt: Background and Objectives: Coronary artery calcification (CAC) is a frequent additional finding on lung cancer screening (LCS) low-dose computed tomography (LDCT). Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a major cause of death in LCS participants. We aimed to describe prevalence of incidental CAC detected on LDCT in LCS participants without prior history of coronary artery disease (CAD), evaluate their CVD risk and describe subsequent investigation and management.
Methods: Prospective observational nested cohort study including all participants enrolled at a single Australian site of the International Lung Screen Trial. Baseline LDCTs were reviewed for CAC, and subsequent information collected regarding cardiovascular health. 5-year CVD risk was calculated using the AusCVD risk calculator.
Results: 55% (226/408) of participants had CAC on LDCT and no prior history of CAD, including 23% with moderate-severe CAC. Mean age of participants with CAC was 65 years, 68% were male. 53% were currently smoking. Majority were high risk (51%) or intermediate risk (32%) of a cardiovascular event in 5 years. 21% of participants were re-stratified to a higher CVD risk group when CAC detected on LCS was incorporated. Only 10% of participants with CAC received lifestyle advice (only 3% currently smoking received smoking cessation advice). 80% of participants at high-risk did not meet guideline recommendations, with 47% of this group remaining without cholesterol lowering therapy.
Conclusion: LCS with LDCT offers the potential to identify and communicate CVD risk in this population. This may improve health outcomes for high-risk LCS participants and further personalize management once screening results are known.
