Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
a. Clinically significant CAD, defined as a stenosis >= 50% b. Clinically non-significant CAD, defined as a stenosis 30%-49%

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
1. To determine the diagnostic accuracy of the exercise stress test for: a. Clinically significant CAD, defined as a stenosis >= 50% b. Clinically non-significant CAD, defined as a stenosis 30%-49% 2. To compare the incidence of coronary angiograms and coronary revascularization procedures (i.e. PCI or CABG procedures) in the population screened with CTA compared to a historical population using CTA as a secondary screening tool 3. To establish the additive value of CACS in addition to clinical risk scores (European Society of heart Score or Framingham) as a predictor of CAD on CCTA.
