💠👭 can have higher CT-FFR for the same stenosis severity! Use it to reduce sex disparities, and avoid unnecessary caths.
💠 #yesCCT has the potential to bridge knowledge gaps in #womensCVD
💠 We must carefully consider sex hormone exposures and associated #CV risk in our transgender patients!
💠 #yesCCT can be more prognostic in 👭!
💠 Asymptomatic 👭 develop #CAC 10 years behind men, but symptomatic 👭 only lag by 5 years in plaque by CCTA
✨️ A fabulous session on Imaging Across the Sex and Gender Spectrum at #SCCT2025 chaired by @prodriguezmd.bsky.social and @purviparwani.bsky.social with a 💫 stellar panel!
💠 ASK your 👭 patients about sex-specific risk factors like premature menopause, use of hormone supplementation.

💥 #yesCCT in asymptomatic patients? Dr. Todd Villines and Dr. Kelley Branch battle it out in a riveting 🔥 Great Debates in CCT session at #SCCT2025.
✨️The verdict?
✅️ Screening CCTA is relatively simple (think screening colonoscopies), 🪙 standard for plaque assessment & likely coming soon, but...
✅️ CCTA guidance improves CTO outcomes.
✅️ Plaque physiology, myocardial mass at risk determined by CCTA helps guide bifurcation PCI.

✨️Highlights from the high yield #SCCT2025 Joint Session with @scainews.bsky.social on The Promise of CT guided PCI
✅️ Plaque anatomy, calcium density, plaque physiology helps guide stent size, location, need for lesion modification.
✅️ CCTA planning improves cath lab efficiency, radiation/contrast
We kicked off the @scainews.bsky.social - SCCT joint session with co-chair Jonathon Leipsic sharing key takeaways of #yesCCT guided PCI. Come join us in the general session room! #SCCT2025
