CaRi-Heart Assessment of Risk and Evaluation of Inflammation in Coronary CT Angiography (CARE-CCTA)

"CaRi-Heart® is an artificial-intelligence-based software device that analyzes coronary CT angiography (CCTA) images to quantify coronary inflammation and generate a CaRi-Heart Risk Score. The analysis provides color-coded visualization and quantitative metrics derived from perivascular fat tissue characteristics, enabling improved assessment of coronary artery disease risk.~In this study, CaRi-Heart® analysis is applied prospectively to CCTA images obtained as part of standard clinical care. The results are reviewed by the interpreting physician and recorded to determine whether the additional information affects diagnostic interpretation or management decisions. No additional imaging, radiation, or contrast exposure occurs."
