Abstract
Noninvasive access to coronary anatomy has long been anticipated and eventually became available with the emergence of multislice computed tomography angiography (MSCTA). MSCTA offers the possibility to identify coronary artery disease already in its preclinical phase. This unprecedented information proves to be useful in clinical practice as it allows the appropriate allocation of preventive therapies such as statin and aspirin.
