Emerging Role of Coronary Computed Tomography Angiography in Lipid-Lowering Therapy: a Bridge to Image-Guided Personalized Medicine

To summarize the current status of coronary computed tomography angiography (CTA) in the assessment of coronary plaques and discuss the ability of serial coronary CTA to quantitatively measure changes in the plaque burden in response to lipid-lowering therapy. Recent advances in coronary CTA have allowed identification of high-risk coronary features in acute coronary syndrome and measurement of changes in the coronary plaque burden with good...
