Abstract: Objective This study aimed to calculate scanner-, kilovoltage peak (kVp)–, and patient size–specific computed tomography (CT) number thresholds for determining Agatston score (AgSc). Methods The proposed method was validated using calcium measurements in an anthropomorphic… read more here.
