Core Tip	This review gives an overview of the current status of noninvasive assessment of coronary artery disease (CAD) and the ability of cardiac computed tomography angiography (CCTA) and cardiac biomarkers for the diagnostic classification and risk stratification of patients with suspected and known CAD. Since all techniques described herein are available in the clinical routine and are associated with an acceptable time spent the translation to the clinical realm appears promising. Focusing on CCTA-based quantitative plaque characterization we herein present the (1) available evidence; (2) comparison with other techniques of plaque characterization; and (3) the value of “bio-imaging” for the risk stratification of patients with CAD.
