Abstract(in English) At present, heart disease ranks second in the cause of death in Japan. Especially, Ischemic heart disease (Myocardial infarction and Angina pectoris) of coronary artery calcification is one main cause of death. As the medical examination of coronary-arteries disease, Computed Tomography image (CT image) and coronary angiography using Ketheter exists. Coronary angiography is inspection with the danger in such cases as the damage of blood vessel lining membrane and aortic valve. And, danger of side effect of contrast media exists. Examination by CT image is paid to attention, because it doesn't cut the body open. The extraction algorithm of coronary calcification is stated by using the chest multi-slice CT image for the pulmonary cancer group examination by this research.
