The role of coronary artery calcium scoring in the prediction of coronary artery disease based on non-contrast non-cardiac chest CT scans in airline pilots

BackgroundThe aim of the present study was to explore the value of coronary artery calcium score (CACS) using non-gated, non-contrast chest computed tomography (NCCT) to predict coronary artery disease (CAD) in airline pilots.MethodsPilots with coronary calcification found on NCCT were consecutively...
