A test that can detect early signs of atherosclerosis in the coronary arteries.

CT heart calcium score, also called CT heart (computed tomography) is a quick and non-invasive X-ray examination of the coronary arteries based on computed tomography (CT). CT and CT are two names for the same type of examination. The method measures the amount of calcium (calcification) in the coronary arteries. Calcification occurs when fat, cholesterol and inflammatory processes over time contribute to plaque formation in the blood vessels, a condition called atherosclerosis or atherosclerosis.

By identifying how much calcium is present in the coronary arteries, the examination can estimate the risk of future cardiovascular disease, such as heart attack. The method is therefore often used as a complement to traditional risk assessments based on blood tests, blood pressure and lifestyle factors. Calcium score is particularly valuable because calcifications often develop long before symptoms occur. The examination can therefore identify early signs of cardiovascular disease even in people who otherwise feel healthy.

CT heart coronary calcium score

What does the calcium score show?

The examination measures the amount of calcium in the coronary arteries and provides a numerical value – a so-called calcium score. The higher the value, the greater the amount of calcified plaque in the vessels and the higher the risk of future cardiovascular disease.

  • Score 0 – no detectable calcifications.
  • Score 1–99 – small amount of calcification.
  • Score 100–399 – moderate amount of calcification.
  • Score 400 or higher – pronounced calcification and increased risk of coronary artery disease.

An elevated calcium score does not automatically mean that you have a serious narrowing of the coronary arteries, but it shows that there are signs of atherosclerosis. The result therefore always needs to be interpreted in relation to your age, your risk factors and your medical background.

After the examination, the images are reviewed by a specialist in radiology and the result is then assessed by a cardiologist. In the report, the calcium score is weighed against your medical history and any risk factors, such as blood lipids, blood pressure, diabetes or heredity.

In the case of higher values, the doctor may recommend preventive measures, such as lifestyle changes, follow-up or further cardiac examination if it is deemed medically justified

Can the examination detect coronary artery disease?

Computed tomography with calcium score can detect calcified atherosclerotic plaques in the coronary arteries. These changes occur when fat, cholesterol, calcium and inflammatory processes accumulate in the artery wall over time. By measuring the amount of calcium in the coronary arteries, the examination can show whether there are signs of atherosclerosis and provide an estimate of how widespread the calcified plaque burden is.

A calcium score of 0 means that no calcifications can be detected, which in most cases speaks strongly against significant calcified coronary artery disease. However, a normal result does not completely exclude the presence of soft, non-calcified plaques. The result can be used to identify people who may benefit from preventive treatment, such as lifestyle changes or blood lipid-lowering drugs.

It is important to understand that the examination does not show the degree of possible narrowing of the vessels (stenosis). If the examination shows more pronounced changes, or if symptoms are present, further cardiac examinations may be considered, such as CT coronary angiography or other cardiological tests.

When can a CT calcium score be relevant?

The examination is often used for preventive purposes to assess the risk of future cardiovascular disease. It can be particularly valuable when the individual risk is difficult to assess based on traditional risk factors.

  • Elevated cholesterol or blood fats.
  • High blood pressure.
  • Diabetes or insulin resistance.
  • Hereditary history of heart attack or coronary artery disease.
  • Long-term smoking or previous smoking.
  • Uncertain cardiovascular risk despite normal blood tests.
  • Preventive heart screening in selected adults without acute symptoms.

What is the difference between calcium score and CT coronary angiography?

Calcium score only measures the amount of calcium in the coronary arteries and is mainly used to assess the long-term risk of cardiovascular disease. The examination does not require any contrast medium and is performed very quickly.

CT coronary angiography is a more advanced examination in which contrast medium is used to visualize the anatomy of the coronary arteries and any narrowing. It is therefore mainly used when there is suspicion of established coronary artery disease or when there are symptoms such as chest pain.

Order CT heart calcium score

The examination usually takes about 10–15 minutes and does not require a contrast injection. You lie still on a table that is slowly moved through a computerized tomography scanner, where advanced X-ray technology is used to take detailed images of the coronary arteries. The actual image capture only takes a few seconds.

Because the examination is based on computed tomography, it involves a small amount of X-ray radiation. However, the radiation dose is relatively low and corresponds approximately to the amount of natural background radiation that the body is normally exposed to over a few months. In modern medical imaging diagnostics, the lowest possible radiation dose is always used to ensure high image quality.

After the referral has been activated, you will be contacted by one of our doctors who will review your medical background and any symptoms you may have to ensure that the examination is suitable for you. The examination itself is performed at a radiology clinic and the images are reviewed by a specialist in radiology. The results are then compiled and you will receive a medical report from a cardiologist shortly after the examination.

Dialogue with a doctor is always included

When booking a CT heart coronary calcium score, a medical review with a doctor is always included. The purpose is to ensure a clear questioning, review your medical history and assess your individual risk factors for cardiovascular disease.

The medical review makes it possible to determine whether calcium score is the most appropriate examination for you, or whether another cardiac examination should be recommended in the first place. The assessment is an important part of the process and helps to ensure that the examination is as relevant, safe and accurate as possible.

When is CT heart calcium score not suitable?

Calcium score is primarily a preventive examination and is not used to investigate acute symptoms. If you have clear symptoms from the heart, such as chest pain, pressure on the chest, shortness of breath or suspected heart attack, you should always contact healthcare urgently.

If established coronary artery disease is suspected, CT coronary angiography or another cardiac examination may be more appropriate. Do not hesitate to contact us if you are unsure which examination is best suited.

The chest (thorax) is a protective place for the body's vital organs, such as the heart and lungs. The chest consists of the sternum, twelve pairs of ribs and the vertebrae of the thoracic spine, which together form a strong yet flexible skeleton. The skeleton serves as a strong protection against external influences and is at the same time an attachment point for muscles involved in breathing and upper body movements.

Inside the chest is the heart, which pumps blood to the entire body, and the lungs in which gas exchange occurs during breathing. The respiratory muscle diaphragm forms the bottom of the chest and plays a major role in both inhalation and exhalation. In addition to the organs, the chest also houses large blood vessels, nerves and lymphatic vessels. The breast tissue in women, including the nipples, is also part of the chest and has both hormonal and functional roles.

CT Calcium Score (also called coronary CT or coronary calcium scoring) is a rapid computed tomography examination of the heart. Modern high-speed CT scanners can measure the amount of calcium in the walls of the coronary arteries. Calcium in the coronary arteries is an early sign of hardening of the arteries (atherosclerosis) and can provide information about the risk of future cardiovascular events such as heart attack.

Preparation is minimal. You should avoid caffeine and smoking a few hours before the examination, as it can affect your heart rate. You do not need to fast. Bring any medications with you as usual. Wear comfortable clothing without metal parts around the chest.

DT Calcium Score is a very safe test. The radiation dose is low – approximately equivalent to a mammogram. No contrast agent is used, which eliminates the risk of allergic reactions. There are no known side effects and the test does not require any recovery afterwards.

The result is reported as an Agatston score (CAC score). A score of 0 means that no calcium has been detected, which indicates a very low risk. Scores between 1–99 indicate a small to moderate amount of calcium, 100–399 indicate moderate calcium deposits, and 400 or higher indicate extensive atherosclerosis. Your doctor will relate the result to your age, gender, and other risk factors.

No. Unlike a full coronary CT scan with contrast, no contrast is needed for a Calcium Score examination. This makes the examination easier, faster and without the risk of contrast reactions.

The examination is primarily intended as a screening for people without known heart symptoms but with one or more risk factors – for example, advanced age, high blood pressure, high blood lipids, diabetes, smoking or a genetic predisposition to cardiovascular disease. It is not suitable as an emergency investigation for chest pain or other symptoms, and is generally not recommended for people under 40 years of age without risk factors.
