Incremental prognostic value of visually estimated coronary artery calcium in patients undergoing positron emission tomography imaging

Incremental prognostic value of visually estimated coronary artery calcium in patients undergoing positron emission tomography imaging

Objective Visually estimated coronary artery calcium (VECAC) from chest CT or attenuation correction (AC)/CT obtained during positron emission tomography (PET)–myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) is feasible. Our aim was to determine the prognostic value of VECAC beyond conventional risk factors and...
