Abstract

Objective: Atrial fibrillation (AF) and coronary artery disease (CAD) are interrelated clinical conditions which increase mortality and morbidity globally. Coronary computed tomography angiography adapted Leaman score (CT-LeSc) is an important tool for CAD detection. Herein we report clinical impact of CT-LeSc on prediction of new-onset AF (NOAF) occurence in patients with low-to-intermediate risk for CAD.
