Abstract
Advances in CT scan revealed that the presence of calcified plaque by coronary CT and aortic calcification and aortic valve calcification by aortic CT are related to subsequent cardiovascular events. In particular, coronary calcification has many evidence related to cardiovascular events as a surrogate marker of plaque in atherosclerotic coronary arteries. From now on, by identifying atherosclerosis by calcium scanning with CT, it is necessary to consider drug treatment and lifestyle improvement, etc. for prevention of cardiovascular disease.
