Research progress on the relationship between breast artery calcification and cardiovascular disease / 解放军医学杂志

ABSTRACT

As a disease with high morbidity and mortality, cardiovascular disease always threatens human health at all times. Exploring the risk factors has always been the research direction of physicians. In recent years, it has been found that breast artery calcification is closely related to the occurrence and development of cardiovascular disease, which is one of the potential risk factors. The present paper reviews the overview, grading methods, incidence and related studies of breast artery calcification and cardiovascular disease, and explores in-depth the correlation between breast artery calcification and cardiovascular disease in order to provide a basis for improving the assessment of cardiovascular disease risk.
