    Objectives: to correlate the presence and intensity of breast arterial calcifications (BAC) with the coronary calcium score (CCS) and the risk of developing myocardial ischemia, stroke, heart attack and death from coronary causes in five years in patients at intermediate risk by Framingham criteria. Methods: 45 patients at intermediate risk with previous indication of routine mammography, performed CCS. Each method was analyzed separately by specialist physicians without knowledge of the results. The presence and intensity of BAC were graded as follows: absent (no vascular calcifications); slight (one vascular segment), moderate (one whole vessel) and severe (two or more vessels). CCS was rated at zero, slight (1-100), moderate (101-300) and severe (greater than 300). The data were compared using appropriate statistical tools. The patients will be followed for five years. Results: the mean age was 59,6 years. The finding of BAC was diagnosed in 15 patients (4 slight, 3 moderate and 8 severe), 38, not present. The CCS was abnormal in 20 cases (10 slight, 6 moderate and 4 severe) and equal to zero in 33. There was predominance of absence of BAC and zero CCS in patients with low Framingham score. It was observed that exists a statistically significant association (p <0.05) between the presence of intramammary and coronary vascular calcifications. Intensity correlation between methods was not found. Among the risk factors evaluated for coronary artery disease, there was association statistically significant (p <0.05) between age and breast arterial calcfications, as well as age and coronary calcifications. So far, no cardiovascular event was noted. Conclusions: there is relationship between BAC and CCS in women at intermediate risk of cardiovascular disease; intensity correlation between methods was not significant; in the first 20 months of this ongoing research, no case of myocardial ischemia, stroke, heart attack and death from coronary causes was observed
