Cohort · 2,053 peopleHeart failure
Who was studied2,053 participants in the Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis
What changedHeart failure prediction was similar with untimed and heartbeat-timed scans, with ventricular-volume prediction scores of 0.77 for both
The catchThe study assessed prediction, not whether screening improved health outcomes
