Summary

Potential Cross-Talk Between Arterial Calcifications Background Vascular calcification is a key component of atherosclerosis. This study investigates the potential correlations between aortic and coronary calcifications detected via abdominal CT, considering age-related variations, to explore the possibility of cross-talk.

Method A total of 921 patients (n=921) \[male: 508 (55%), female: 413 (44.7%)\] were divided into three age groups: 40-49, 50-69, and 70-90 years. Non-contrast abdominal CT scans were evaluated for calcifications in the coronary arteries, thoracic aorta, abdominal aorta (AA(1): suprarenal, AA(2): renal, AA(3): infrarenal), iliac arteries, and femoral artery. Aortic branches were categorized by calcification levels: none, \<25%, 25-50%, ≥50%
