Evaluation of coronary artery disease in potential liver transplant recipients.
TLDR
In assessing LT recipients, a management paradigm of “quadruple assessment” is suggested to include (1) history, examination, and electrocardiogram; (2) transthoracic echocardiograms; (3) functional testing; and (4) where appropriate, direct assessment of CAD.About:

Significance of Coronary Artery Calcium Found on Non-Electrocardiogram-Gated Computed Tomography During Preoperative Evaluation for Liver Transplant.
Brian H. West,Christopher G. Low,Biraj Bista,Eric H. Yang,Gabriel Vorobiof,Ronald W. Busuttil,Matthew J. Budoff,David Elashoff,Jonathan M. Tobis,Henry M. Honda +9 more
TL;DR: Calcium scoring from non-electrocardiogram-gated chest computed tomography studies may be integrated into preoperative algorithms to rule out obstructive CAD and help avoid invasive angiography in this high-risk population.
Journal ArticleDOI
Preoperative cardiac assessment in liver transplant candidates.
TL;DR: Owing to intrinsic limitations, yields and relevance of noninvasive stress tests, under constant scrutiny even if used, are discussed, focusing the definition of the "high risk" candidate and exploring non invasive imaging and new forms of stress imaging.
