DOI: 10.1007/s12350-020-02326-7
Abstract: The early detection of coronary artery disease (CAD) is key for effective therapy decision-making to lower morbidity and mortality. Thus, the cardiovascular community made huge efforts to find optimal ‘‘gatekeeper’’ methods. A promising tool is… read more here.
