This study is looking at patients with peripheral artery disease (blocked arteries in the legs) who have just had successful surgery or intervention to restore blood flow. Half of these patients will receive standard care alone, while the other half will also get a special heart CT scan and advanced analysis to check for hidden blockages in the heart arteries.
Many patients with blocked leg arteries also have blockages in their heart arteries, but don't know it yet. Doctors want to understand whether finding and treating these hidden heart blockages early—right after leg artery treatment—could improve patient outcomes and save lives.

After enrolling, you will be randomly assigned to one of two groups. One group receives standard medical therapy only. The other group receives standard medical therapy plus a heart CT scan and special analysis within 14 days. If the heart scan shows blockages that need treatment, your doctor may recommend additional heart procedures within 3 months. You will have follow-up visits at 6 months, 1 year, 2 years, and possibly up to 5 years to monitor your health and any heart events.
