Comparative prognostic value of coronary artery calcium, plaque burden, and obstructive disease on coronary CT angiography
Coronary artery calcium (CAC) scoring is an established marker of cardiovascular risk. In patients undergoing coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) for chest pain, the relative prognostic importance of total plaque burden and obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD) remains uncertain. We compared the l...
