Process for assessing / determining / calculating the cardiovascular risk profile of a person by evaluating a chest CT of that person

摘要

A method for determining / evaluating / assessing the cardiovascular risk profile of a person by evaluating a thorax computed tomography of this person is characterized in that to determine the total length of a calcification - each thorax CT slice of the vertically running portions of the LM, LAD , LCX and RCA coronary arteries, in which a point-like calcification ≤ 2mm is identified, counts, and - counts the number of layers on which the calcification is visible, and - counts the layers counted with the real layer thickness or the layer spacing " x "is multiplied and - the calcifications found in the horizontal sections of the coronary arteries that are longer than ≥ 2 mm are measured once in the layer with the longest dimension and - added to the calcifications calculated in the vertical sections of the coronary arteries.
