Abstract

Objective: To evaluate the relationship between red blood cell distribution width (RDW) and the severity/morphology of coronary atherosclerotic plaques (CAPs). Methods: We retrospectively analyzed 572 patients without a history of coronary artery disease (CAD) in whom dual-source 64-slice computed tomography angiography (CTA) was performed due to the suspicion of CAD. Results: Critical CAPs were detected in 26.9% of subjects. The RDW value was higher in patients with critical CAPs than in those without (13.63±1.28 vs. 14.31±1.58, p
