Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| To determine the prevalence and extent of silent myocardial ischemia by stress MRI perfusion in asymptomatic and/or unrecognized high-risk individuals with proven coronary calcification on CT (CAC >300) To determine the effect of cardiac MRI and feedback of important incidental findings on the clinical presentation of the natural course of coronary atherosclerosis (occurrence/recognition of symptoms and consequent *late* diagnostic testing). | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| To determine the prevalence and extent of early detected reduced LVEF and valvular dysfunction by cardiac MRI in asymptomatic and/or unrecognized high-risk individuals. To determine the association of early detected silent myocardial ischemia, reduced LVEF and valvular dysfunction by cardiac MRI with adverse clinical outcome (presentation/perception of symptoms, medical attention seeking, major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) and quality of life) To study the predictors of abnormal CMR parameters in data derived from CT, questionnaires and cardiac blood markers. To establish an imaging dataset to perform analysis on new imaging *biomarkers*. | — |
