Seeing CAD Clearly 🔍❤️: Plaque, Perfusion, Prognosis 📸💓📈

🔍💓 Chronic Coronary Artery Disease: Seeing What Matters Before It Hurts   Just finished reviewing the 2025 Lancet paper on contemporary non-invasive imaging for chronic CAD, and the message is striking: how we see the heart shapes how well we save it.   From CT angiography that unmasks non-obstructive plaque 🖥️➡️🫀 to stress PET/CMR that maps true ischemia under load 💨📊, multimodality imaging is redefining diagnosis, risk, and long-term outcomes.   The evidence is clear: better imaging leads to better prevention—and in many cases, fewer invasive procedures and fewer missed opportunities for early therapy.   In an era of rising cardiometabolic risk, precision imaging isn't just a tool—it's a commitment to catching disease in its "quiet" phase and protecting patients long before symptoms speak.   Science, clarity, prevention. 🔬✨❤️
