2 The Current State of CAD Dx Noninvasive functional testing does not accurately identify obstructive CHD ~2/3 of patients with positive stress tests in reality have no obstructive CAD 1 28% of patients with negative stress tests actually do have CAD 1 Only 24% of all non-invasive tests accurately predict the presence of CAD 80% of patients with positive non-invasive tests in reality have no obstructive CAD 2 49% of patients with negative non-invasive tests actually do have CAD 2 1 Patel, M. et al. NEJM 2010,362:10 2 Chinnaiyan, et al. JACC 2012, 59: 688 2

3 Cardiac CT has emerged as a superb noninvasive method for imaging coronary anatomy and identifying obstructive CAD Al-Mallah, M Current cardiovascular Imaging Reports 2016

5 Limitations to Diagnostic Performance of CCTA Parameters % Sensitivity 94 Specificity 83 PPV 48 NPV 99 Se = TP/ (TP + FN) Sp = TN/ (TN + FP) PPV = TP/ (TP + FP) NPV = TN/ (TN + FN) Rates of false positive CCTAs are unnaceptably high. Al-Mallah, M Current cardiovascular Imaging Reports 2016

6 CCTA and FFR do not correlate well CCTA correlates favorably with angiographic estimate of coronary stenosis but unreliably estimates hemodynamic significance of lesions as determined by FFR FFR 75% false positives The anatomical assessment of the hemodynamic significance of coronary stenoses determined by visual CTCA, CCA, or QCT or QCA does not correlate well with the functional assessment of FFR Meijboom et al. J Am CollCardiol 2008;52:636 43
