I read through the entire thing (it's quite short) and picked out these 11 pages and excerpts to share. Let's call this an adventure in anthropology. Here are 11 highlights from an evangelical-written science textbook, written and approved by the Bob Jones University young-Earth creationism team. Science vs. faith.
Cardiac Calcium Scoring. The coronary arteries are the vessels that supply oxygen containing blood to the heart. The plaque that may be found in these arteries is a build-up of fat, calcium and other substances that can either narrow or close the arteries.Some symptoms of plaque build-up in these arteries may be chest pain, arm tingle, or back pain.Cardiac Scoring, which is also known as Heart Scan or Calcium Scoreis a non-invasive CT scan of the heart.It will calculate your risk of developing Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) by measuring the amount of calcified plaque in the coronary arteries.ome symptoms of plaque build-up in these arteries may be chest pain, arm tingle, or back pain. Cardiac Scoring, which is also known as Heart Scan or Calcium Scoreis a non-invasive CT scan of the heart.
Coronary Calcium Scan. Guide. Coronary calcium scans use a special X-ray test called computed tomography (CT) to check for the buildup of calcium in plaque on the walls of the arteries of the heart (coronary arteries). This test is used to check for heart disease in an early stage and to determine how severe it is.Coronary calcium scans are also called cardiac calcium scoring. The coronary arteries supply blood to the heart. Normally, the coronary arteries do not contain calcium.Calcium in the coronary arteries may be a sign of coronary artery disease (CAD) . A CT scan takes pictures of the heart in thin sections.uide.
