A coronary artery calcium scar of zero is an excellent prognosis for not developing coronary artery disease for some years. Continue to follow a diet low in cholesterol& saturated fat& sweets, no smoking,regular exercise,maintain ideal weight and blood pressure, & minimize stress. I have seen patients in their 70's with a zero score and that can be you,also.
