Ct calcium scan

2020-08-25 22:58:37
What does a zero calcium score tells? My ct scan showed this and my doc told me that now it will be repeated after 10 years.. He then ordered cholesterol test and Hs- crp test which was all gud and told me that i dont have any hard plaques and risk of developing soft plaques is very low as no sugar/cholesterol/ inflammation So i want to know my heart attack risk and also can ct score scan show the anatomy of coronary arteries or anything else apart from calcium blocks

CT coronary angio with calcium score 0 shows no evidence of coronary artery disease. It has clinical significance if it is >400 to be said sever coronary involvement. Yours is 0 and hence no risk even.

Calcium score zero is absolutely normal. All your parameters are normal. Nothing to worry
