A recent U.S. study utilizing AI-powered technology from Caristo Diagnostics has revealed a high prevalence of coronary inflammation in asymptomatic adults. The research, conducted by Biograph, found that 42.9% of participants without known heart disease exhibited elevated levels of coronary inflammation, with a significant portion showing inflammation even without detectable plaque buildup. Notably, standard blood tests and traditional cardiovascular risk calculators failed to identify these individuals, suggesting the AI technology offers a more comprehensive approach to assessing cardiovascular risk by analyzing the tissue surrounding coronary arteries.
