| Core Tip |
With rising angiography costs and risks, we explored whether a 5-minute femoral ultrasound could predict who truly needs it. We have analyzed associations between atherosclerosis of peripheral arteries detected by ultrasound and coronary stenosis detected by angiography with evaluation of the extent of coronary lesions using the Gensini score. A femoral plaque ≥ 70% flagged severe coronary stenosis as reliably as many blood tests (area under curve 0.93 with 93% sensitivity and 90% specificity), like troponin for myocardial infarction. |
