Predictive value of the perivascular fat attenuation index for MACE in young people suspected of CAD

open access: yesBMC Cardiovascular Disorders
Objective The perivascular fat attenuation index (FAI) evaluated by coronary computed tomographic angiography (CCTA) has been reported to have strong prognostic value, but few studies have focused on young people.
