A diagnosis of asymptomatic carotid disease (including plaque identified on carotid ultrasound) or asymptomatic coronary disease (including coronary artery calcium score > 400) or plaque identified on CT angiography is associated with increased CVD risk. These patients should be considered to have an estimated five year risk of 15 percent or more.
