1 Current and Future Imaging Trends in Risk Stratification for CAD Brian P. Griffin, MD FACC Department of Cardiovascular Medicine, Heart and Vascular Institute, Cleveland Clinic Disclosures: None

2 Introduction CVD remains leading cause of death New imaging technologies are they effective in CAD risk stratification? What do recent studies say about the utility of imaging techniques in CAD risk assessment?

3 Anybody wonder why CAD is such an epidemic?

4 Low Grade Stenoses Cause Most Infarctions

5 Different Noninvasive Imaging Modalities Echocardiography Stress echo, Db Myocardial perfusion scintigraphy SPECT, PET Cardiac magnetic resonance Cardiac computed tomography Calcium score, CTA Inexpensive, safe, prognostic Radiation, expensive, prognostic Expensive, time consuming, structure New data

6 Sensitivity Comparison of Different Testing Modalities vessel 2 vessel 3 vessel All CAD Stress ECG Stress ECHO Nuclear

7 Specificity of Different Stress Testing Modalities Stress ECG Stress ECHO Nuclear NUCLEAR TECHNIQUES MORE SENSITIVE BUT LEAST SPECIFIC

12 CTA is gold standard for assessment of Coronary Anomalies

14 Role of imaging in an asymptomatic individual without known CAD? Calcium scoring Low Cost Low radiation

15 MESA study: CAC and prognosis

22 Is CTA accurate for stenosis? N Prev Sens Spec PPV NPV ACCURACY % CORE % Meijboom % FLASH MODE % Strengths of CT are high sensitivity and high NPV Meaning, if you have disease, we will find it and more importantly, If you don t have disease, you can safely go home J Am Coll Cardiol 2008;52 J Am Coll Cardiol 2008;52: NEJM 2008;359 J Am Coll Cardiol Img 2011;4:328 37

23 Survival Probability CONFIRM Registry: CTA and All 1.00 cause mortality Normal Non-obstructive P< vessel CAD P< vessel CAD P< vessel CAD P< Survival Time (Years) 24,775 patients without known CAD with 2.3 year follow-up and 404 deaths Min J et al. J Am Coll Cardiol 2011;58:849 60

24 PROMISE: Separating fact from fiction Symptomatic, intermediate risk population Selection of appropriate patients was EXCELLENT Wholly made in USA Low event rate, suggesting OUTDATED risk prediction models CTA associated with a lower rate of cath without obstructive CAD, i.e inappropriate caths Radiation exposure lower in CTA vs. nuclear testing Death, MI, Unstable Angina, Major Complications HR 0.94; p=0.682 CTA : Functional Hazard Ratio: 1.04 (95% CI: 0.83, 1.29) P = Douglas P. NEJM 2015

25 PROMISE Economic Substudy CTA strategy improved efficiency of use of invasive cath (fewer normal caths, higher proportion of caths also getting revasc) But despite lower testing costs for CTA compared with stress echo (~$100 less) and stress nuclear (~$630 less), net effect was to drive a small (<$500), statistically non-significant increase in cost After 90 days, very little test strategy-related differences in costs out to 3 years Mark D. ACC 2015

26 Coronary CTA in ED 8 million patients in USA, diagnostic cost of $10 billion Again, strengths of CT are high sensitivity and high NPV Cury R et al. J Nucl Cardiol 2011;18:331 41

27 ACIRN trial 1370 low intermediate risk subjects (TIMI risk score 0-2): 908 in the CCTA group and 462 getting traditional care CCTA group had a higher rate of discharge from ED (49.6% vs. 22.7%), a shorter LOS (median, 18.0 hours vs hours; P<0.001), and a higher rate of detection of CAD (9.0% vs. 3.5%) One serious adverse event in each group Litt H et al. N Engl J Med 2012

NEJM 2012

30 Summary Multiple effective ways to detect CAD in symptomatic intermediate risk group Calcium score may be indicated when therapeutic dilemma in an intermediate risk asymptomatic patient CTA useful in suspected coronary anomaly In symptomatic patients strategy of CTA vs stress did not reduce event rate or cost CTA may help triage faster in ER chest pain but larger real life studies are needed
