Abstract

Coronary artery disease is one of the most important mortality and morbidity reasons all over the world. Diagnosis and treatment of coronary artery disease before it causes clinical signs may decrease the mortality and morbidity rates. Thus, several risk stratification methods have been proposed to identify the individual who are at higher risk for development of coronary artery disease. In large clinical trials, coronary calcium score has been shown to have value in identification of the individual at high risk. This review aims to discuss the coronary calcium score measurement techniques and its role in clinical practice.

Özet

Koroner arter hastalığı en önemli mortalite ve morbidite nedenlerinden birisidir. Klinik olarak belirti vermeden önce koroner arter hastalığını belirlemek ve tedavi etmek bu hastalığa bağlı mortalite ve morbidite oranlarını azaltabilir. Bu amaçla koroner arter hastalığı gelişmesi açısından yüksek riskli bireyleri belirlemek için çeşitli risk belirleme yöntemleri geliştirilmeye çalışılmaktadır. Koroner kalsiyum skoru ölçümünün geniş klinik çalışmalarda yüksek riskli bireyleri belirlemek açısından değerli olduğu gösterilmiştir. Bu derlemede kalsiyum skoru ölçüm teknikleri ve klinik uygulamadaki yerinin tartışılması amaçlanmıştır.
