Association of epicardial fat volume index with coronary artery disease phenotypes based on anatomical and functional imaging: a linkage with the severity of coronary artery disease

Abstract Background Epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) plays an important role in the pathogenesis of coronary artery disease (CAD). The association between EAT and obstructive CAD or myocardial ischemia has been established, but its relationship with CAD phenotypes based on anatomical and functional i...
