Epicardial and Pericardial Fat Volume Correlate with the Severity of Coronary Artery Stenosis

Introduction: Epicardial fat volume (EFV) has been reported to correlate with the severity of coronary artery disease (CAD). Pericardial fat volume (PFV) has recently been reported to be strongly associated with CAD severity and presence. We aimed to investigate the relationship between EFV and PFV...
