Assessing the Impact of Long-term High-Dose Statin Treatment on Pericoronary Inflammation and Plaque Distribution - a Comprehensive Coronary CTA Follow-up Study
2024-01-04
Abstract excerpt
(1) Background: CTA has validated the use of pericoronary adipose tissue (PCAT) attenuation as a credible indicator of coronary inflammation and plays a crucial role in coronary artery disease (CAD).
