Summary

The purpose of this study is to propose a new method for evaluating coronary artery calcium scores (CACS) in individuals with coronary artery disease.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

  • Age range: ≥18 years of age
  • Intermediate Framingham Risk Score of 10 to 20% risk over the next 10 years
  • Previous non-contrast enhanced chest CT in a time frame that will accommodate experimental imaging (CG-SDCT) within 4 weeks. This imaging may have already been completed at the time of enrollment or may be scheduled in the future at the time of enrollment.
  • IRB written informed consent obtained and signed Exclusion Criteria
  • Negative urine pregnancy test in women of child-bearing potential (WCBP) within 1 week prior to s-DCT.

Exclusion Criteria

  • Unable to provide consent
  • Pregnant or lactating
  • BMI > 33 (Patient who may not fit on a 35 x 35 detector) (Images are not clear on subjects who have a greater than 33 BMI)
  • Previous history of MI or thoracic surgery.
  • Disability that could interfere with the scanning process, non-ambulatory or unable to hold their breath for up to 30 seconds.
  • Planned procedures or therapies in between non-contrast CT scan and study Chest tomosynthesis scan, e.g., line placement in the chest region, biopsy, etc.
