Figure 4.

Warranty period (in years) of CAC=0 in the total population using higher thresholds of detectable CAC (>10, >100) as a function of estimated 10-year atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease risk A, age B and desired yield of testing (NNS). ASCVD=Atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease risk; CAC=Coronary artery calcium; NNS=Number needed to screen.
