Association of Epicardial and Abdominal Visceral Adipose Tissue With Coronary Atherosclerosis in Patients With a Coronary Artery Calcium Score of Zero

nal adipose tissue and their ramification in patients at low risk for CAD are not fully understood. We hypothesized that the distribution of epicardial and abdominal visceral adipose tissue influences coronary atherosclerosis in patients with a CAC score of zero. We sought to establish whether there is a relationship between epicardial and abdominal visceral adipose tissue distributions and the incidence of NCPs detected by coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) in patients with a CAC score of zero.
