'''Calcification''' is the formation of a calcium salt. It often happens in tissue.

==Classification==
It is typically classified as:<ref name=Ref_PCPBoD8_20-21>{{Ref PCPBoD8|20-21}}</ref>
#Dystrophic calcification.
#Metastatic calcification.

==Dystrophic calcification==
*Secondary to [[necrosis]] (coagulative, caseous, liquefactive).<ref name=Ref_PCPBoD8_20-21>{{Ref PCPBoD8|20-21}}</ref>

Examples - calcification in:
*[[Atherosclerosis]].
*[[Calcific aortic stenosis]].<ref name=pmid12779138>{{Cite journal | last1 = Novaro | first1 = GM. | last2 = Griffin | first2 = BP. | title = Calcific aortic stenosis: another face of atherosclerosis? | journal = Cleve Clin J Med | volume = 70 | issue = 5 | pages = 471-7 | month = May | year = 2003 | doi = | PMID = 12779138 | URL = http://www.ccjm.org/cgi/pmidlookup?view=long&pmid=12779138 }}</ref>
