Chapters detail the mechanisms associated with arterial and valve calcification, relevant risk factors, pathophysiology and the latest therapeutic techniques. Recent diagnostic technological developments including how computed tomography (CT) scanning can be utilized along with Agatston score to quantify coronary arterial calcification when investigating whether a patient for sub-clinical atherosclerosis are covered. The correlation with the presence of arterial calcification and extent of coronary stenosis is also explored. Cardiovasular Calcification details relevant aspects of the basic science and reviews the latest pathological and therapeutic techniques used in treating patients with cardiovascular calcification. It is therefore an essential resource for practicing cardiologists, cardiac surgeons, vascular specialists and radiologists. 410 0$aMedicine Series 606 $aCardiology 606 $aSurgery 606 $aRadiology 606 $aCardiology 606 $aSurgery 606 $aRadiology 606 $aCor$2thub 606 $aArtèries$2thub 606 $aCalcificació$2thub 608 $aLlibres electrònics$2thub 615 0$aCardiology. 615 0$aSurgery. 615 0$aRadiology. 615 14$aCardiology. 615 24$aSurgery. 615 24$aRadiology. 615 7$aCor 615 7$aArtèries 615 7$aCalcificació 676 $a616.12 702 $aHenein$b Michael Y.$f1959- 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910523748503321 996 $aCardiovascular Calcification$92593101 997 $aUNINA
