Correlation of Epicardial Fat Thickness With the Severity of Coronary Artery Disease

EFT serves as a promising non-invasive biomarker for CAD severity. The strong association between EFT and CAD severity, especially in males and older adults, emphasizes the importance of targeted screening and preventive strategies. Future studies should validate these findings to support EFT integration into clinical practice for early CAD risk assessment.

Abstract

EFT serves as a promising non-invasive biomarker for CAD severity. The strong association between EFT and CAD severity, especially in males and older adults, emphasizes the importance of targeted screening and preventive strategies. Future studies should validate these findings to support EFT integration into clinical practice for early CAD risk assessment.
