Figure 2 Target-to-background ratio differences in cardiovascular risk classes. The figure highlights the average TBR values for the whole thoracic aorta (top left), the myocardium (top right) and the three different thoracic aorta segments (bottom). aP < 0.05; bP < 0.01; cP < 0.001. TBR: Target-to-background ratio; CVR: Cardiovascular risk; NGMCS: Normalized global molecular calcification score.
