The incidence of aortic calcification gradually increases with age, and the presence of aortic calcification in 60-year-olds is a relatively common phenomenon, but it should be taken with some seriousness.
Aortic calcification refers to the deposition of high-density calcified plaque on the aortic wall, which is one of the manifestations of atherosclerosis. Generally speaking, aortic calcification is less common in young people and more common in older people. Since age is one of the causative factors of atherosclerosis, aortic calcification is more common in 60-year-olds.
However, when aortic calcification is detected, it should still be taken seriously, and appropriate tests should be carried out in time to determine whether it is accompanied by other vascular diseases.
