On this episode of JHLT: The Podcast, the Digital Media Editors invite first author Nikil Prasad, MD, a cardiology fellow in the Columbia University Medical Center in New York, to discuss the paper, “Can the grading of mild cardiac allograft vasculopathy be further refined? An angiographic and physiologic assessment of heart transplant recipients with ISHLT CAV 1.”

The discussion explores:

  • The study's subdivisions of CAV grade 1 into CAV 1a and CAV 1b, based on the degree of coronary stenosis
  • Differing clinical information provided by different methods of CAV screening: reduced myocardial blood flow reserve vs angiographic grading
  • Limitations in implementing PET-based CAV assessments at various centers, and how transplant programs can use combined testing data
