摘要：

In a study using electron beam tomography, we evaluated the calcification present in each of the main coronary arteries of 120 patients admitted for acute myocardial infarction. Culprit arteries are more heavily calcified than non-culprit arteries in patients evaluated calcified than non-culprit arteries in patients evaluated within 4 weeks of acute myocardial infarction.
