Combined Assessment of High-Sensitivity Troponin T and Noninvasive Coronary Plaque Composition for the Prediction of Cardiac Outcomes

Use of hsTnT as a marker of myocardial microinjury and cardiac CT angiography as a marker of the total atherosclerotic burden improves the prediction of cardiac outcome in patients with presumably stable CAD and may aid in personalized risk stratification in patients at intermediate risk.
