May enhance coronary event prediction in scales; leaves open prospective validation before clinical use.
The literary review is devoted to the role of multifocal atherosclerosis (MFA) in the development of acute cardiovascular events. The data on prevalence and different methods of multifocal atherosclerosis diagnosis are presented. A piece of information about the existing prognostic scales of progress of adverse coronary events for a certain period of time is given. It is proposed to include non-coronary atherosclerosis in prognostic scales to increase their predictive power.
