, the maximum value of Youden’s J statistic also corresponds to the best diagnostic critical value of the method, that is, cut off value/HU. TAK, Takayasu arteritis; CAI, coronary artery involvement; FAI, fat attenuation index; AUC, area under the curve; CI, confidence interval; HU, Hounsfield unit.
