A calcium score detects a single marker associated with heart disease which is calcified plaque. However it does not pick up soft plaque which is the plaque that typically causes heart attacks. The CCTA actually visualizes the coronary arteries as well as the structures of heart. The CCTA is the most comprehensive test for early detection of coronary artery disease.
