Abstract
- Beam-hardening artifacts resulting from heavily calcified plaques in patients with a high coronary calcium score (CCS) may reduce coronary computed tomography angiography (CTA) diagnostic accuracy of the increased false-positive rate [(1)][1]. A recently introduced computed tomography (CT)
