Picture of Incidental Calcium To Understand Risk Estimate (PICTURE) Trial
Trial ID or NCT#
Status
NOT RECRUITING
Purpose
This is a prospective randomized controlled trial assessing the impact of notifying patients and their clinicians of an incidental finding of coronary artery calcification (CAC) indicating increased cardiovascular risk. Patients will be identified through completed radiology orders for non-gated, non-contrast chest CT in the appropriate clinical context and then will have an EHR screen for inclusion criteria. The presence of CAC will be confirmed by a board-certified physician. Eligible patients will be randomized to CAC notification or usual care using a 1:1 stratified block randomization method based on baseline statin use.
