The authors would like to correct two sentences in section 4.2. They should read:

Among those deemed reasonable to treat based on ASCVD guidelines (10‐year risk, 5%–20%), 50% had a CAC score of 0.

Furthermore, the Society of Cardiovascular Computed Tomography (SCCT) recommends consideration of a CAC score in those with a risk score of 5% to 20% and selectively in those with lower predicted risk who have a family history of premature ASCVD or other risk conditions.

[Correction added on 13 September 2018, after first online publication: Article category and format changed from Letter to the Editor to Erratum.]
