An observational study of Coronary Artery Disease, run by Piedmont Healthcare at 1 site in United States.
Trial summary
This study will evaluate the use of cardiac CT in identifying atherosclerosis plaque in patients who have not been diagnosed with atherosclerosis and who have no symptoms of the disease but who are at risk of developing atherosclerosis based on traditional risk factors such as diabetes or a family history of coronary… Read more about this study

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
Cardiac CTProcedure or surgery
All participants will undergo a coronary artery CT angiogram with contrast.

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
The primary endpoint of the study is identifying the prevalence of coronary artery disease (CAD) in an asymptomatic population of patients without prior history of, but with high likelihood of CAD. (time frame: 6 months, 1 year). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 20 Nov 2017; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
