Everything you've said is fine Dr. Koka but what exactly does that have to do with @PeterAttiaMD's post? He's talking about risk prediction and prevention and you're talking about acute events and stents...
The problem with the value proposition for coronary CTA is that in reality the use case is mostly limited to low risk (young) people presenting with chest pain to the ER. That use case shrank with the advent of high sensitivity troponins. Everything else is essentially made

After years of following both @drjohnm & @PeterAttiaMD, would love to see them discuss this together. Their approach to CAC and questions they seek to answer are entirely different. Many things I'd like to ask both, and try to tease out if there's a middle ground they'd agree on.
If every CT scanner in the US broke down for a year, heart disease deaths would not change. The prevalence of soft thinking amongst doctors is shocking https://t.co/nWVjNaf9ka

absolutely phenomenal talk by @KayKoMD at @BanffPathCourse his willingness to use the tools available to us (ie p16 and p53) is really resonating with me so many pearls in his talk, impressive job addressing expected responses and delving into technical aspects

Fantastic thread for the pathology trainees as well, since most of what we do pertains to cancer diagnoses and it can often be unclear what a diagnosis means for the patient when there are so many treatment options and when inpatient chemo is appropriate.

This hepatic solitary fibrous tumors is infiltrative and has resulted in obstructed ducts - the appearance is not in line with that of mesenchymal hamartoma, which has more stellate mesenchymal cells. #UMiamiPath @ModernPathology
