About this episode

In this episode of The Feldman Protocol, how well do conventional cardiovascular risk metrics actually identify who is truly at risk for a heart attack decades before it happens? Cardiologist Arthur Agatston (MD) makes the case for coronary calcium scoring as an early detection tool, discusses the natural history of atherosclerotic plaque, revisits key moments in lipid science history, explores why stent placement in asymptomatic patients presents a more complex picture than intuition suggests, and shares observations on the evolving role of CT angiography and AI-assisted plaque analysis. 🔥 This episode is sponsored by us -- Own Your Labs 👉 `https://ownyourlabs.com/sp/50` Private blood…
