Brief Summary

This multicentre, open-label, single-arm Study is to evaluate the effect of Rosuvastatin 20 mg 76 weeks on coronary atherosclerosis plaque versus baseline in Chinese coronary heart disease (CHD) patients with hyperlipidemia by measuring the plaque volume using a 64 slice spiral CT. Effect on blood lipids, hsCRP and Carotid intima-media thickness (CIMT) is also evaluated.

• History of alcohol and/or drug abuse in recent 5 years
• Any serious or unstable physical or psychological conditions, in the opinion of the investigator, would compromise the safety of the patient or the participation in this study
