High relative amount of nodular calcification in femoral plaques is associated with milder lower extremity arterial disease

High relative amount of nodular calcification in femoral plaques is associated with milder lower extremity arterial disease

Abstract Background Clinical implications of different types of vascular calcification are poorly understood. The two most abundant forms of calcification, nodular and sheet calcification, have not been quantitatively analyzed in relation to the clinical presentation of lower extremity arterial dise...
