Abstract
Coronary artery calcification is a marker for atherosclerotic disease. The calcifications frequently occur early in the disease process and often before the development of luminal narrowing or cardiac events. Electron beam CT has a high accuracy in detecting calcifications, and thus has prognostic value in predicting luminal narrowing and future cardiac events.
摘要
冠状动脉钙化是动脉粥样硬化疾病的一个标志物。钙化常常在疾病进程的早期出现，而且往往在管腔狭窄或心脏事件发生之前就出现。电子束CT在检测钙化方面具有很高的准确性，因此在预测管腔狭窄和未来心脏事件方面具有预后价值。
