calcium score

[NLGA]

I received news that my coronary calcium score is 1 which is normal for my age this was done via Ct scan

I couldn’t have the the contrast agent injected as my pulse was to high which was the 2nd part of the test

This may sound daft but from the ct scan I had can the doctors tell where your calcium build up is only it’s great my score is one but not so great if it’s all in my arteries

Ot does it not work that way

If you're calcium score is 1 you should be jumping for joy. It usually means you have absolutely no plaque build up in your coronary arteries. Anything under 100 is classed as normal. Mine was 987, go celebrate!
