A heart calcium scan, or coronary artery calcium scan, is a CT scan that detects calcium deposits in the coronary arteries, indicating cholesterol plaque buildup. The scan provides a score that estimates the amount of calcified plaque, but should be interpreted alongside other cardiovascular risk factors. It is most useful for individuals with uncertain or intermediate risk, helping guide preventive treatment decisions.
