Description
Satomi Yashima and a large team asked in two thousand twenty-four whether a CT scan measure can forecast outcomes for weak hearts. They studied one hundred one patients with dilated cardiomyopathy and reduced pumping strength. The measure, called extracellular volume, can now be read from a standard heart CT scan.
Bad events such as heart death or hospital stays hit about one in four patients. Those patients had higher volume scores than the rest. A cut-off score split the group into high and low risk in a clear way. The authors say this scan measure can help doctors spot patients who need closer care.
