Threshold for the Upper Normal Limit of Indexed Epicardial Fat Volume: Derivation in a Healthy Population and Validation in an Outcome-Based Study

Epicardial fat volume (EFV) quantified on non-contrast cardiac CT (NCT) relates to cardiovascular prognosis. We sought to define the upper normal limit of body surface area (BSA)-indexed EFV in a healthy population and to validate it as a predictor of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE). We a...
