Cardiovascular Risk Assessment.
Medical Clinics of North America 2017 July
Cardiovascular risk assessment is fundamental to prevention of cardiovascular disease, because it helps determine the size of the potential benefits that might accrue to individual patients from use of statins, aspirin, and other preventive interventions.
