Relationship between pericoronary adipose tissue attenuation value and image reconstruction parameters [PDF]
Rationale and objectives: To investigate the relationship between the pericoronary adipose tissue CT mean attenuation (PCATMA) measurement and image reconstruction parameters (adaptive statistical iterative reconstruction-veo (ASIR-V) percentage, kernel,

Evaluation of pericoronary adipose tissue attenuation on CT [PDF]
Pericoronary adipose tissue (PCAT) is the fat deposit surrounding coronary arteries. Although PCAT is part of the larger epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) depot, it has different pathophysiological features and roles in the atheroscle-rosis process.

Coronary CTA-based radiomic signature of pericoronary adipose tissue predict rapid plaque progression [PDF]
Objectives To explore the value of radiomic features derived from pericoronary adipose tissue (PCAT) obtained by coronary computed tomography angiography for prediction of coronary rapid plaque progression (RPP). Methods A total of 1233 patients from two

Identification of patients with unstable angina based on coronary CT angiography: the application of pericoronary adipose tissue radiomics [PDF]
ObjectiveTo explore whether radiomics analysis of pericoronary adipose tissue (PCAT) captured by coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) could discriminate unstable angina (UA) from stable angina (SA).MethodsIn this single-center retrospective ...

Perivascular Fat: A Novel Risk Factor for Coronary Artery Disease [PDF]
Perivascular adipose tissue (PVAT) interacts with the vascular wall and secretes bioactive factors which regulate vascular wall physiology. Vice versa, vascular wall inflammation affects the adjacent PVAT via paracrine signals, which induce cachexia-type
