We sought to assess primary care provider (PCP) follow-up after BAC and CAC notification and the association between BAC on mammography and CAC on CT.\n                    <jats:bold>Methods:<\/jats:bold>\n                    Participants without known CVD undergoing mammography at a single centre were prospectively recruited over 18 months. BAC were qualitatively scored (none\/mild\/moderate\/severe) by 2 breast radiologists. All participants had research cardiac CT for CAC within 6 months, scored using the Agatston method. Questionnaires collected baseline demographics, risk factors, and follow-up data.\n                    <jats:bold>Results:<\/jats:bold>\n                    286 participants were included (median age 62 \u00b1 10). Prevalence of BAC was 13% (38\/286), 248 had none, 18 mild, 16 moderate, and 4 severe. For CAC: 180 had none, 70 had mild (CAC 1-99), 28 had moderate (CAC 100-399), and 8 had severe (CAC &gt;400). For detecting CAC, BAC presence had 92% specificity (166\/180), 23% sensitivity (24\/106), and 67% negative predictive value (166\/248). Most participants with BAC and CAC (71%, 17\/24) were not on lipid-lowering therapy and 63% (15\/24) did not believe they had elevated CVD risk. At follow-up (median 202 days), 46% (11\/24) with BAC and CAC implemented lifestyle modifications, 92% (22\/24) scheduled PCP follow-up, and 56% (10\/18) underwent further CV risk assessment following their appointment. One participant with BAC and CAC had a stroke during follow-up.\n                    <jats:bold>Conclusion:<\/jats:bold>\n                    In a prospective cohort without known CVD undergoing mammography, notification of BAC and CAC status prompted high follow-up rates with PCPs and lifestyle modifications.\n
