Coronary artery calcium identified on non-gated chest computed tomography guides downstream coronary computed tomography angiography
In patients with severe CAC on non-gated chest CT, coronary CTA is less effective in providing accurate stenosis assessment. However, the cut-off values for semi-quantitative CAC scoring remain to be clearly defined through future studies.
