Calcification of atheroma occurs in inflamed lesions. Mononuclear cells transform to tissue macrophages, enter the lesion, lesion attracts additional monocytes, mast cells, and lymphocytes, Microcalcifications are seen in lesions with pathologic intimal of 6.2 sites of arterial calcification per patient (providing 397 foci There was an inverse correlation between 18F-NaF localization and Hounsfield unit plaque density. Although many of these lesions may not be at imminent risk of rupture (because of the distance between foci or their Quantification of coronary artery calcium using ultrafast computed tomography. calcification in human coronary atherosclerosis progressed?
