Epicardial Adipose Tissue Attenuation and Fat Attenuation Index: Phantom Study and In-Vivo Measurements With Photon-Counting CT

2022
Background: Epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) attenuation is a vascular inflammation marker predictive of adverse cardiac events. Fat attenuation index (FAI) assesses fat attenuation for predefined coronary segments. Photon-counting detector (PCD) CT employs routine virtual monoenergetic image (VMI) reconstructions.

Lp(a) and vascular inflammation: data from perivascular fat attenuation index measurements

European Journal of Preventive Cardiology
Abstract Introduction/Purpose Elevated lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] values consist an independent cardiovascular risk factor. So far, there are no approved pharmaceutical treatments available to reduce Lp(a) in clinical practice, while antisense oligonucleotides which can induce a drastic reduction of Lp(a)

Utility of the right coronary artery perivascular fat attenuation index for diagnosing vasospastic angina

European Heart Journal
Abstract Introduction Vasospastic angina (VSA) is a major cause of myocardial infarction with non-obstructive coronary arteries and a potential contributor to sudden cardiac death. However, its diagnosis remains challenging, as it relies on invasive provocation testing.
