Severity of coronary artery calcification among residents of Yakutia (according to CT-scan results)
Abstract
The results of complex examination of patients’ native and non-native nationality of Yakutia with diseases of the cardiovascular system for definition for the determination of atherosclerotic coronary artery lesions using tomography techniques (CT of the heart) were analyzed. It was revealed that the degree of calcification of the coronary arteries has no significant differences between native and non-native patients with CHD.
The inclusion of CT coronary heart disease in the algorithm of outpatient examination patients with suspected coronary artery disease will reduce the number of invasive angiography, and provides important prognostic information to clinicians.
