Evaluating the effect of coronary atherosclerosis on the occurrence of atrial fibrillation through coronary computed tomography angiography
Our data indicate an association between coronary atherosclerosis and greater AF risk in patients with increased thickness of the interventricular septum relative to the posterior wall of the left ventricle. This finding suggests that by using CCTA, we can predict which patients are at higher risk of developing AF.
