Amy Berger has written a new article about the CAC on HeadsUpHealth. Before she launches into a clear explanation of the basics of a CAC, she reviews why high Cholesterol numbers are not useful markers for heart disease, why statins may have made the CVD situation worse, the fact higher cholesterol is better for most over 60, etc. A short but thorough article, good to share if want the reasons why a CAC is better than lipid panels.
