Coronary artery calcification (CAC) is a common phenomenon, but the clinical relevance of this phenomenon, for instance as a risk factor for plaque vulnerability, is still controversial. After the introduction of electron-beam computed tomography (EBCT), multislice computed tomography (MSCT), and intravascular ultrasound (IVUS), which enables quantitative assessment of CAC, the number of clinical studies concerning CAC has rapidly increased. In this review, we focus on the quantitative analyses of CAC by using clinical cardiovascular imaging and the clinical significance of CAC.
