Abstract
Aims Perivascular fat attenuation index (FAI) has emerged as a novel coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA)–based biomarker predicting cardiovascular outcomes by capturing early coronary inflammation. It is currently unknown whether FAI adds prognostic value beyond that provided by single-photon emission computed tomography myocardial perfusion imaging (SPECT-MPI) and CCTA findings including coronary artery calcium scoring (CACS)....
