Objectives To assess the value of a CT-based abdominal aortic calcification (AAC) score as
a surrogate marker for the presence of asymptomatic coronary artery disease (CAD) …

The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between abdominal aortic
calcification (AAC) and coronary artery calcification (CAC) in chronic kidney disease (CKD) …

Purpose To determine if abdominal aortic calcification (AAC) at CT predicts cardiovascular
events independent of Framingham risk score (FRS). Materials and Methods For this …

This study sought to determine the association of abdominal aortic calcium (AAC) with
coronary artery calcium (CAC) and obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD). We included …

Objective Quantification software for coronary calcification is often used to measure
abdominal aortic calcification on computed tomography (CT) images. However, there is no …

BACKGROUND: Coronary artery calcification (CAC) is correlated with aortic calcification
(AC) and predicts coronary atherosclerosis as well as obstructive coronary artery disease …

Background Three known risk factors for aortic atherosclerosis predict the severity of
coronary artery disease (CAD): aortic calcification (AC), aortic wall thickness (AWT), and …

Context Abdominal aortic calcification (AAC) is a common finding in patients with
atherosclerosis. Objective The aim of this study was to demonstrate the incremental value of …

Background: Multi-detector computed tomography (MDCT) is more and more used for
evaluation and quantification of coronary artery calcification, but correlation between the …

Objective To evaluate the association between aortic arch calcifications (AAC) on chest
radiography and coronary artery calcium (CAC) score determined by CT. Methods A total of …
