Coronary artery calcium score combined with Framingham score for risk prediction in asymptomatic individuals. (2004, background): “Given the uncertainty of current predictive models,(5) the search for new strategies to discriminate patients who would benefit most from intensive primary prevention efforts is a clinically important objective.(3,6) One suggested approach to improve risk prediction over the FRS is the quantificatio”
