What is CT Scan of Calcium Scoring?
CT Scan of Calcium Scoring is an imaging procedure used to assess the amount of calcium deposits in the coronary arteries, which is a key indicator of coronary artery disease (CAD). It involves a CT scan with low-dose radiation to create detailed images of the heart and measure the presence of calcified plaque in the arteries.
The results, known as the calcium score, help evaluate the risk of a heart attack or cardiovascular events. The procedure is non-invasive, quick, and generally well-tolerated, with minimal discomfort.
No contrast dye is typically needed for this test.
What to expect & how to prepare
A CT scanner takes many X-ray images from different angles and combines them into cross-sectional pictures. You lie on a table that moves through a ring-shaped scanner.
- Contrast: some CT studies use an iodine-based contrast injection and some do not. If contrast is planned, the centre may ask you to avoid food for a few hours and to bring a recent kidney function report.
- Tell the staff: mention kidney disease, diabetes medicines such as metformin, asthma, previous reaction to contrast, or any allergy before the scan.
- Metal: jewellery and metallic items in the scan area are removed; you may be asked to change into a gown.
- Fasting: a plain CT without contrast normally needs no fasting — confirm with the centre which type is booked for you.
CT uses ionising radiation, at a higher dose than a plain X-ray. Tell the staff if you are pregnant or think you might be, so the request can be reviewed.
Performed by a radiology team, normally on a doctor's request.
