Almost 50% of the people diagnosed with coronary artery disease are considered low to medium risk. The standards of detecting CAD is using ultrasonography but it has its limits. So, Computed Tomography is the one of the best ways to visualize it. Most of the information on the asymptomatic patients can be collected from calcium scores which are done with the CT scanner. The purpose of this study was to look at the relationship between the total calcified, and noncalcified coronary plaque in cardiovascular risk factors in asymptomatic people with low to moderate
