AF images: A 48-year-old female patient (BMI = 35.7), dyslipidemic, non-diabetic and non-hypertensive, complaining of chest pain and exertional dyspnea. Echocardiography revealed good systolic function (EF = 66%), no regional wall motion abnormalities. A Two different views of 3D volume rendered images, B Axial Maximum Intensity Projection (MIP) image, and C Sagittal curved planar reformatted image showing mildly ectatic proximal segment of LAD with anomalous origin of the RCA from mid-LAD just opposite to D2 takeoff and right dominant circulation. Another small coronary artery arises from right coronary cusp supplying SA node branch and becomes very diminutive in caliber distally. D Axial curved planar reformatted image of LM and Ramus intermedius. E 3D volume rendered image and F 2D axial multiplanar reformatted image showing epicardial fat volume (212 cm3)
