Background: Coronary Artery Calcifications (CACs) are associated with coronary atherosclerosis and Cardiovascular (CV) events. In "non-cardiovascular" settings, CACs can be easily detected on chest Multi-Detector Computed Tomography (MDCT). Their evaluation may help to better stratify CV risk in the...
WASHINGTON, DC—Whether or not the presence and degree of coronary artery calcification (CAC) should be routinely included on noncardiac CT scan reports, even when the information isn’t likely to change management, is still under discussion. Current guidelines recommend calcium scoring for a ...
CACS可以预测未来发生心血管事件的风险,并用于指导治疗和管理决策。 总结来说,“coronary artery calcification score”是指冠状动脉钙化评分,用于评估冠状动脉钙化的程度或严重性,并提供心血管疾病风险的预测和指导治疗决策的依据。常见的冠状动脉钙化评分方法包括Agatston Score和CACS。

Abstract: Coronary artery calcification is attracting increasing attention. The presence of calcification indicates the existence of subclinical atherosclerosis, although atherosclerosis is not always accompanied by calcification. In general, the extent of the calcificati...
There have been no data with regard to the relationship between coronary artery calcification (CAC) detected with positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT), as incidental findings, and myocardial perfusion single photon computed tomography (MPS) results in patients with cancer.The mai...

Dyslipidemia and abnormal cholesterol metabolism are closely related to coronary artery calcification (CAC) and are also critical factors in cardiovascular disease death. In recent years, the atherogenic index of plasma (AIP) has been widely used to evaluate vascular sclerosis. This study aimed to inv...
To assess the relationship of coronary artery calcification to angiographically detectable disease, the authors evaluated 100 patients less than 60 years of age who underwent clinically indicated coronary angiography and ultrafast computed tomography (CT). The ultrafast CT technique consisted of 3-mm-thic...
Coronary artery calcification refers to the calcification of atherosclerotic lesions in the walls of the coronary arteries, which is associated with inflammation, elevated lipid content, and increased arterial stiffness. It is commonly measured using computed tomography and is a recognized risk factor for...
