Abstract

OBJECTIVES: This study expolored the relationship between perivascular adipose tissue (PVAT) radiomic features derived from coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) and the presence of coronary artery plaques. It aimed to determine whether PVAT radiomic could non-invasively assess vascular inflammation associated with plaque presence.
