Prevalence of Non-calcified Coronary Plaque on 64-Slice Computed Tomography Coronary Angiography in Patients with Zero and Low Coronary Artery Calcium Scores
Abstract:Objective: To study the prevalence of non-calcified plaque causing significant coronary artery stenosis in patients with zero or low coronary artery calcium scores in a regional hospital in Hong Kong. Methods: Computed tomography reports and clinical records (at least 3 years after computed tomography coronary angiography) of 336 consecutive patients with coronary artery calcium scores and computed tomography coronary angiography performed with a 64-slice multi-detector computed tomography scanner from January… Show more
