Frequency and Predictor of Coronary Thin-Cap Fibroatheroma in Patients With Acute Myocardial Infarction and Stable Angina Pectoris: A 3-Vessel Optical Coherence Tomography Study
(A) A 90% stenosis observed in the middle left anterior descending artery in patients with stable angina pectoris (arrow). (B) Lipid-rich plaque (L) covered by thin fibrous cap (63.3 µm) (arrowheads) observed in the target lesion of a patient with stable angina pectoris. (C) Lipid-rich plaque (L) covered by thin fibrous cap (arrowheads) detected in the noninfarct-related lesion of an acute myocardial infarction patient. (D) Magnification of (C). The thickness of the fibrous cap that existed betw
