Elevated coronary artery calcium in adults aged 30–45 is linked to significantly higher mortality risk over 30 years.

Detecting elevated CAC in younger adults may provide a critical opportunity for earlier intervention and more aggressive cardiovascular prevention.

You know when a patient needs a valve intervention. But how do you recognize when the valve isn't the whole story?

📅Join us on December 7 at 5 pm ET for Cardiac Amyloidosis and Aortic Stenosis: TAVR and Beyond.

Designed specifically for structural and interventional cardiologists, this interactive webinar moves beyond simply reviewing amyloidosis red flags to address the decisions you face in everyday TAVR practice: which patients warrant further evaluation, how to approach diagnosis, what ATTR-CM means for #TAVR planning, and how to build a consistent approach within your structural heart program.

At #TCT2026, SCAI urged @ABIMcert to eliminate procedural volume reporting for continuing certification, a requirement that singles out interventional cardiologists.

Speaking with @CardioBusiness and other media, SCAI President J. Dawn Abbott, MD, MSCAI, warned that the requirement can create barriers for experienced physicians as their practices evolve and that procedural volume alone does not measure competence.

“We want to uncouple procedural competency and volume from medical knowledge competency,” said @JDawnAbbott1

SCAI supports assessing procedural competence through credentialing, peer review, and outcomes assessment, not a standalone procedure-count threshold.

ABIM is reviewing the policy and seeking physician feedback.
