Example of non-calcified plaque progression at serial coronary computed tomography angiography. Automatically generated curved multiplanar reformation of image data of the left anterior descending coronary artery in an asymptomatic diabetic 46-year-old man performed in December 2010 (a) and in June 2013 (c).
