Abstract

Objective To analyze the relationship between epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) and pericardial adipose tissue (PAT) with coronary atherosclerosis. Methods 104 participants were given CTA inspection. EAT and PAT were measured according to the images of calcification score, and the relationships between them as well as between coronary atherosclerosis with EAT and PAT were analyzed. Results There was a significant correlation between EAT volume and PAT volume; they had a certain relationship with Gensini scores - the scores of coronary atherosclerosis; in patients with two or three branches of coronary artery lesions, the EAT and PAT volumes were larger than that in patients with single lesion, and there was no statistically significant difference between the two and three branches; ROC curve suggested that the diagnostic values of EAT and CAT on coronary atherosclerosis were similar. Conclusion EAT volume is significantly associated with PAT volume, and both of them have a certain diagnosis value to the diagnosis of coronary atherosclerosis.
