Abstract
The prevalence and incidence of cardiovascular disease have been
known to be associated with the presence of NAFLD.
However, NAFLD was thought to be a benign condition but now studies
reported that NAFLD may progress to cirrhosis, liver failure&
hepatocellular carcinoma.
NAFLD is strongly associated to the features of metabolic syndrome
and insulin resistance that contribute to development of Coronary Artery
Disease (CAD). Thus, it was hypothesized that NAFLD associated CAD.
CAD is usually symptomatic, so finding significant relationship between
CAD and NAFLD may indicate that screening for NAFLD in patient with
CAD has great importance in early diagnosis of the disorder and vice versa.
Recently Coronary Computed Tomography Angiography (CCTA) has
proven to be effective in evaluation of coronary artery atherosclerosis,
including the plaque characteristics and degree of stenosis. Thus, this
method can be used to diagnose subclinical atherosclerosis.
