The comprehensive body composition analysis can be routinely performed, at the point of care, for all cardiac perfusion scans utilizing CTAC. Automatically-obtained volumetric body composition quantification metrics provide added value over existing risk factors, using already-obtained scans to significantly improve the risk stratification of patients and clinical decision-making.
