Measurement of epicardial adipose tissue using non-contrast routine chest-CT: a consideration of threshold adjustment for fatty attenuation

BACKGROUND: Epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) is known as an important imaging indicator for cardiovascular risk stratification. The present study aimed to determine whether the EAT volume (EV) and mean EAT attenuation (mEA) measured by non-contrast routine chest CT (RCCT) could be more consistent wit...
