Prevalence and predictors of coronary artery disease in patients with a calcium score of zero [PDF]

The International Journal of Cardiovascular Imaging, 2013
The absence of coronary calcification is associated with an excellent prognosis. However, a calcium score of zero does not exclude the presence of coronary artery disease (CAD) or the possibility of future cardiovascular events. Our aim was to study the prevalence and predictors of coronary artery disease in patients with a calcium score of zero ...

Meaning of zero coronary calcium score in symptomatic patients referred for coronary computed tomographic angiography [PDF]

European Heart Journal - Cardiovascular Imaging, 2012
The clinical implication of a zero coronary calcium score (CCS) in patients with chest pain syndrome has been under debate. This study was undertaken to determine the meaning of a CCS of zero in a large sample of symptomatic patients referred for coronary computed tomographic (CT) angiography.We consecutively enrolled 2088 patients (age 58 ± 10 years ...

Coronary Artery Calcium Score–Weighted Clinical Likelihood Model Performance in Patients with Stable Chest Pain and Coronary Artery Calcium Scores of Zero

Reviews in Cardiovascular Medicine
Background: For individuals with persistent stable chest pain (SCP) and a coronary artery calcium score (CACS) of 0, it might be challenging to establish the best risk assessment method for determining the individuals who will not benefit from further ...

Prevalence and extent of coronary artery disease among patients with a zero calcium score

Zanco Journal of Medical Sciences, 2022
Background and objective: Coronary artery calcium is a specific indicator of and an independent risk factor for atherosclerosis. However, calcium scoring may miss non calcified plaques, which were indicated to be of clinical importance.

Natural course of coronary artery calcium progression in Asian population with an initial score of zero

BMC Cardiovascular Disorders, 2020
Background We aimed to investigate the natural course of coronary artery calcium progression in an Asian population with a baseline coronary artery calcium (CAC) score of zero, and to determine subclinical coronary atherosclerosis.
