Abstract excerpt

AIM: The aim of this study was to compare coronary calcium scores and aortic calcium scores between patients with severe hypercholesterolemia having a DNA-based diagnosis of FH (FH group) versus patients with severe hypercholesterolemia without the FH gene mutation (NFH group). METHOD: A total of 89 FH and 50 NFH patients underwent CT with coronary and thoracic aorta calcium scoring. Their CCS and TCS in...
