Genetics have a strong influence on calcified atherosclerotic plaques; however, data
regarding the heritability of noncalcified plaque volume are scarce. We aimed to evaluate
genetic versus environmental influences on calcium (coronary artery calcification)
score, noncalcified and calcified plaque volumes by coronary computed tomography angiography
in adult twin pairs without known coronary artery disease.
