Density of calcium in the ascending thoracic aorta and risk of incident cardiovascular disease events

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: The volume and density of coronary artery calcium (CAC) both independently predict cardiovascular disease (CVD) beyond standard risk factors, with CAC density inversely associated with incident CVD after accounting for CAC volume. We tested the hypothesis that ascending thoracic...
