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

Background The prognostic importance of abdominal aortic calcification (AAC) viewed on
noninvasive imaging modalities remains uncertain. Methods and Results We searched …

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) …

Objective To investigate an automated aortic calcium segmentation and scoring tool at
abdominal CT in an adult screening cohort. Methods Using instance segmentation with …

Background. Vertebral fracture assessment (VFA) using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry
can visualize abdominal aortic calcification (AAC). AAC correlates with total atherosclerosis …

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) …

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 …

Purpose To predict cardiovascular disease (CVD) in a clinical care population by using
prevalent subclinical ancillary aortic findings detected on chest computed tomographic (CT) …

Abdominal aortic calcification (AAC) can be accurately recognized on lateral spine images
intended for vertebral fracture assessment, that are obtained with dual-energy X-ray …

Thoracic aortic calcification (TAC) and coronary artery calcium (CAC) have been proposed
for risk assessment of coronary artery and cardiovascular disease events. The aim of this …
