CT calcification patterns of peripheral arteries in patients without known peripheral arterial disease
European Journal of Radiology May 14, 2020
Konijn LCD, van Overhagen H, Takx R, et al. - This research was attempted to evaluate the CT calcification characteristics in peripheral arteries and to analyze potential patterns in individuals without peripheral arterial disease (PAD). Researchers examined 204 patients without known PAD. Linear regression was applied to evaluate interrelation and Chi-Square tests were applied to assess significance. Compared with a CT-histologically validated score, in the crural and femoropopliteal arteries at least two morphological patterns can be identified on CT that, may represent an intimal and medial calcification pattern.
