Quantification of Coronary Inflammation Using Fat Attenuation Index (FAI) in Indians: A Retrospective Study [PDF]

Cardiology and Cardiovascular Research, 2021
Background: Asian Indians have the highest prevalence (11%) of coronary artery risk worldwide compared to all other races. So far no quantifiable risk factor has been shown to explain such a high prevalence. Fat attenuation index (FAI) using CT coronary angiography (CTCA) has been recently used to demonstrate coronary perivascular inflammation and to ...

Pericoronary fat attenuation index predicts vulnerable plaque and adverse outcomes in coronary heart disease [PDF]

Journal of Thoracic Disease
Noncalcified coronary plaque is prone to rupture and may lead to major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs). The pericoronary fat attenuation index (FAI), derived from coronary computed tomographic angiography (CCTA), is an emerging marker of coronary inflammation.

Perivascular fat attenuation index (FAI) on computed tomography coronary angiography reclassifies individual cardiovascular risk estimation [PDF]

International Journal of Cardiology. Cardiovascular Risk and Prevention
Background: The perivascular fat attenuation index (FAI) detects and quantifies coronary inflammation by measuring phenotypic changes in perivascular adipose tissue by using computed tomography coronary angiography images.

Incremental prognostic value of pericoronary fat attenuation index in diabetic patients with non-obstructive coronary artery disease [PDF]

BMC Medical Imaging
Background Non-obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD) is highly prevalent in diabetic patients, yet there are currently limited evidence-based recommendations for risk stratification and management in this population.

Effect of Deep Learning Image Reconstruction on Image Quality and Pericoronary Fat Attenuation Index [PDF]

Journal of Imaging Informatics in Medicine
To compare the image quality and fat attenuation index (FAI) of coronary artery CT angiography (CCTA) under different tube voltages between deep learning image reconstruction (DLIR) and adaptive statistical iterative reconstruction V (ASIR-V). Three hundred one patients who underwent CCTA with automatic tube current modulation were prospectively ...
