Core Tip	Coronary artery disease is the principal cause of death and disability in not only diabetes but also prediabetes patients. Aggressive statin therapy is an established method of primary prevention of cardiovascular disease events in diabetic patients. According to the findings of coronary imaging modalities detecting atherosclerotic lesions, statin therapy in prediabetes may be beneficial for reducing atherosclerotic cardiovascular risk.
