Reproducibility of coronary artery calcium measurements using 0.8-mm-thickness 256-slice coronary CT

Conclusion Reproducibility in CAC measurements using the 0.8-mm-thickness 256-slice MDCT showed low inter-scan/inter-observer variability. Therefore, this CT imaging has potential to be used in prospective, longitudinal CAC assessments.
