Hello! Abdominal aortic calcifications seen on the screen mean that your abdominal aorta has calcified atherosclerotic plaque. In some severe cases, abdominal aortic aneurysms or blockage of the aortic wall can be life-threatening.
Therefore, to know if the abdominal aortic calcification is dangerous, the doctor needs to perform a direct examination and may assign you to do some tests and imaging tests to be able to give Conclusion and treatment plan.
