| Popis: |
Traditional models of cardiovascular risk assessment rely on population-level risk factors and may not accurately capture individualized risk. Imaging biomarkers such as plaque characterization and pericoronary fat inflammation may offer refined risk prediction and allow physicians to personalize care-plans for cardiovascular disease prevention. The integration of plaque morphology and pericoronary inflammation into clinical care is highlighted using a case-based discussion. This article reviews the existing body of evidence supporting the use of novel biomarkers in an individualized comprehensive risk assessment algorithm. |
