Association of Epicardial Adipose Tissue and High‐Risk Plaque Characteristics: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

BACKGROUND: Epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) is hypothesized to alter atherosclerotic plaque composition, with potential development of high‐risk plaque (HRP). EAT can be measured by volumetric assessment (EAT‐v) or linear thickness (EAT‐t). We performed a systematic review and random‐effects meta‐an...
