The role of pericoronary adipose tissue inflammation in atherosclerotic plaque progression and vulnerability: insights from three different CCT-based studies
Inflammation of pericoronary adipose tissue (PCAT) is a critical driver of atherosclerotic plaque progression and destabilization. Although cardiac computed tomography (CCT) provides detailed anatomical evaluation of coronary artery disease, traditional CCT-derived markers, including stenosis severity and coronar...
