My husband has a yearly CATscan of his lungs since he was diagnosed with sarcoidosis of the lungs four years ago--this time they noticed small flecks of what appear to be calcium deposits in the heart along with a picture of the stent that was placed in a rear heart artery three years ago. My question--it is likely that all of our scans would show some calcium deposits by our 50s and 60s, correct? The doctor did not seem concerned but, then, he wasn't a cardiologist--his concern was the sarcoidosis. Also, would you consider this Cat Scan every year to be a safe thing radiation-wise as compared to keeping track of the sarcoids?
