Are you sure you had an MRI for that? Typically the two tests that are used to detect arterial calcification are A; EDCT (electron beam computed tomography) or MDCT (multi-detector computed tomography). I had the EDCT done several years ago but only because I had other medical issues going on that replicated some symptoms of blockage. It's not typically done as a "pre-emptive strike" though as most insurance companies want a valid reason for the procedure to be done.
