Figure 3
Figure 3 Correlation between fluoride uptake and clinical cardiovascular risk. A strong correlation was noted between thoracic aorta NaF uptake and CVR, but also between aortic and myocardial uptake (top panels). Among the thoracic aorta subsegments, descending aorta provided the strongest correlation (bottom panels). TBR: Target-to-background ratio; CVR: Cardiovascular risk; NGMCS: Normalized global molecular calcification score.
