CAD-LT

CAD-LT The Coronary Artery Disease in Liver Transplantation (CAD-LT) score is an easy-to-use, cost-effective, and sensitive clinical tool that predicts the risk of significant coronary artery disease (i.e. ≥50% stenosis in a major vessel or ≥70% in at least a moderate-sized branch vessel warranting percutaneous or surgical intervention) in liver transplant candidates. The CAD-LT score was derived from a cohort of 1,711 liver transplant candidates evaluated between 2010 and 2019 at a single academic transplant center.

The use of the CAD-LT score with the associated cardiac evaluation algorithm may result in improved outcomes, while reducing the overall number of non-invasive or invasive procedures performed during the evaluation process.
