Cover Story: Coronary artery disease is widely established as a leading cause of mortality in developed countries. Assessment of calcium on non-contrast CT scans is a well-recognized approach for predicting cardiovascular (CV) outcomes in asymptomatic individuals. However, plaque is initially non-calcified (NC), and calcification of plaque represents a mature, chronic plaque. Early detection and medical intervention should rely on the detection of NC plaque that can be potentially regressed. With new technological advancements and the incorporation of artificial intelligence in coronary CT angiograms (CCTA), calculation of the presence as well as quantification of NC plaque is possible. This article reviews current data in relation to non-calcified plaque on CCTA in symptomatic and asymptomatic patients and its correlation with IVUS virtual histology. View this paper
