Aortic Valve Calcium in Relation to Subclinical Cardiac Dysfunction and Risk of Heart Failure.
Fang ZhuYannick KaiserEric BoersmaDaniel BosMaryam KavousiPublished in: Circulation. Cardiovascular imaging (2023)
Presence and high levels of AVC were associated with markers of left ventricular structure, independent of traditional cardiovascular risk factors. Larger computed tomography-assessed AVC is an indicative of increased risk for the development of HF.
