🚨 New Study Alert 🩺

Think you're low-risk? Think again. This MESA study shows that even "low-risk" individuals may harbor hidden coronary artery calcium (CAC) — and it matters.

📈 Adding CAC scoring significantly improved ASCVD risk prediction, reclassifying up to 18% into statin-eligible groups.

🧠 Implication? Precision prevention may start with a scan.
