Harnessing Artificial Intelligence and Deep Learning to Determine a Coronary Artery Calcium Estimate in Patients with No History of AtheroSclerotic CardioVascular Disease (HIDDEN-ASCVD) Study

**Recipient:** Kaiser Foundation Research Institute

**Award Amount:** $3,918,561.00
**Ceiling:** $3,918,561.00

**Awarded:** September 27, 2025

**Identifier:** 1R01HL173866-01A1

The project will use artificial intelligence to identify coronary artery calcium from existing CT scans and test ways to notify patients and providers, with the goal of improving preventive statin treatment and reducing cardiovascular disease risk.

### Description

A study to adapt and validate a deep-learning algorithm for identifying coronary artery calcium on non-cardiac, contrast-enhanced CT scans, and to test notification strategies aimed at increasing statin use among patients without known atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease.
