First seen Jan 24, 2026 · Last updated Apr 25, 2026 · Updated 14 times
Summary
This study will see if using artificial intelligence to find calcium buildup in heart arteries on chest CT scans that people already had can help doctors start or adjust cholesterol-lowering medications. About 120,000 adults with known heart disease or significant calcium buildup and poorly controlled cholesterol will take part. Half will have their doctors notified right away, and the other half after a 6-month delay. The goal is to improve cholesterol control and reduce heart disease risk.
