description The widespread availability of the coronary artery calcium scan to diagnose coronary artery atheroma semiquantitatively and its prognostic significance has frequently resulted in a difficult therapeutic decision for physicians caring for asymptomatic patients.Patients and Risk Factors:Of particular concern are patients over 40 years of age and young adults characterized by multiple cardiovascular risk factors. The correct prognostic interpretation of coronary artery calcium scores and the potential benefits and risks of various therapeutic modalities need to be understood.Conclusion:This review describes the therapeutic choices available to endocrinologists and provides recommendations for various treatment options.The endocrinologist is often consulted concerning a positive coronary artery calcium scan in an asymptomatic patient. This article provides a pertinent data review and suggested clinical management.
