Quantitative relationship between coronary artery calcium score and hyperemic myocardial blood flow as assessed by hybrid (15)O-water PET/CT imaging in patients evaluated for coronary artery disease

BACKGROUND: The incremental value of CAC over traditional risk factors to predict coronary vasodilator dysfunction and inherent myocardial blood flow (MBF) impairment is only scarcely documented (MBF). The aim of this study was therefore to evaluate the relationship between CAC content, hyperemic MB...
