Radiology report says Vascular Calcification: what does it mean?

Posted by anderson777 @anderson777, Jan 4, 2020

I recently had a CT scan w/enhancement for Ab/Pel and the report read "vascular calcifications" - I'm only 48 and feel basically great - My primary and multiple people, including a radiology tech, have said to not be concerned especially since it wasn't included in the "Impression" portion of the report - I thoroughly hold my primaries opinion in the highest regard but can't help but be concerned after the idiot gear kicked in and I went online and researched for myself - Anyone have relative thoughts ................ Comforting or not ???????

You are on my mind @floe . I started listening to a podcast, a newer episode popped up I am in the first few minutes of…activity trackers.
It’s online too: https://mcpress.mayoclinic.org/nutrition-fitness/the-truth-behind-10000-steps-a-day-using-health-tech-to-improve-your-wellbeing/

Thanks! I concur with so much of what was shared in the interview. The origin of the 10000 steps is very interesting! My feeling is that we have become much more aware of ourselves over the years and possibly responding to things by over reacting. Apps and technology are great, but we need to remain balanced!

You beat me to it, and now I don’t need to listen to the rest of the podcast. Thanks for the summarizing all things in moderation. 😀 Looking forward to what you find out from your GP. Inquiring minds….
