Potential Clinical and Economic Consequences of Noncardiac Incidental Findings on Cardiac Computed Tomography
JACC - Journal of the American College of Cardiology, 10/09/09
MacHaalany J et al. – Although noncardiac IF are common, clinically significant or indeterminate IF are less prevalent. Rates of death were similar in patients with and without IF, and IF was not an independent predictor of noncardiac death. The investigation of IF is not without cost or risk. Larger studies are required to assess the potential mortality benefit of identifying IF.
