Arterial Age Calculator (Coronary Calcium Score)

Your details

The Agatston score from your cardiac CT scan. A score of 0 means no calcification was detected. Scores above 400 indicate a heavy calcium burden.
Your chronological age in years. Used to compare arterial age against your real age.
years
Men tend to accumulate coronary calcium earlier than women of the same age, so sex provides useful context for interpreting your result.
Arterial AgeArteries significantly older
75.5years

The age at which average arteries carry the same calcium burden as yours

Age Difference20.5years
CAC Score CategoryModerate
Risk InterpretationYour arteries appear roughly 20 years older than your real age, indicating an elevated calcium burden. Prompt discussion with a cardiologist is advisable.
75.5 yrs
Zero (CAC 0)<42Minimal (CAC 1-10)42-56.8Mild (CAC 11-100)56.8-72.6Moderate (CAC 101-400)72.6-82.57Severe (CAC over 400)82.57+

Your arterial age is 75.5 years (real age: 55).

  • Your Agatston score of 150 falls in the moderate category on the standard Rumberger calcium-burden scale.
  • An arterial age 20 years above your real age of 55 suggests accelerated plaque buildup that warrants medical review.
  • Statins, blood-pressure control, smoking cessation, and regular aerobic exercise are the best-studied interventions for slowing plaque progression.

Next stepA score above 100 generally warrants a formal cardiovascular risk assessment and discussion of statin therapy with your doctor or cardiologist.
