❤️ Can visceral fat imaging help identify high-risk coronary plaques?

🎯 New research shows that DECT-derived visceral adipose tissue metrics, especially CT40keV, are strongly associated with high-risk coronary plaques in patients with metabolic syndrome.

These findings highlight the potential of advanced fat imaging biomarkers for earlier cardiovascular risk stratification and more personalized prevention strategies
