Computed tomography-adapted Leaman score (CT-LeSc) was developed to quantify coronary CT angiography information about atherosclerotic burden (lesion localization, stenosis degree, and plaque composition). The objective of the study is to evaluate CT-LeSc long-term prognostic value in patients with suspected coronary artery disease (CAD).
The CT-adapted Leaman score is an independent long-term predictor of hard cardiac events. Patients with non obstructive CAD and high CT-LeSc had hard event-free survival similar to patients with obstructive CAD.
