      Optical coherence tomography-verified morphological correlates of high-intensity coronary plaques on non-contrast T1-weighted magnetic resonance imaging in patients with stable coronary artery disease
      Aims Coronary high-intensity plaques (HIPs) with a high plaque-to-myocardial signal intensity ratio (PMR) on non-contrast T1-weighted imaging in patients with stable coronary artery disease (CAD) are associated with future coronary events. To characterize the morphological substrate of HIP, we performed a correlative optical coherence tomography (OCT) study. Methods and results We examined 137 lesions in 105 patients with stable angina pectoris or silent myocardial ischaemia scheduled for percutaneous coronary intervention ...

      Histopathological Differential Diagnosis of Optical Coherence Tomographic Image Interpretation After Stenting
      Objectives The aim of this study was to identify histological features that correlate with terms commonly used to describe optical coherence tomographic (OCT) and optical frequency-domain imaging (OFDI) images of stented vessels, by means of a histopathological validation study using stented human coronary arteries. Background OCT imaging and OFDI are used to evaluate vascular responses to stent implantation. Descriptive terms such as peristrut low attenuation and heterogeneous have been used ...

    5. Plaque Morphology Predictors of Side Branch Occlusion After Main Vessel Stenting in Coronary Bifurcation Lesions Optical Coherence Tomography Imaging Study

      Plaque Morphology Predictors of Side Branch Occlusion After Main Vessel Stenting in Coronary Bifurcation Lesions Optical Coherence Tomography Imaging Study
      Side branch (SB) occlusion remains a major complication of bifurcation lesion treatment. Although plaque and carina shift are suggested as mechanisms of SB occlusion (1) , little is known about underlying plaque morphology and composition of the main vessel (MV) and its potential impact on SB occlusion after MV stenting. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) allows precise evaluation of plaque characteristics, and dedicated bifurcation 3-dimensional (3D) quantitative coronary angiography (QCA) software permits ...

      Multimodality Intravascular Imaging to Evaluate Sex Differences in Plaque Morphology in Stable CAD
      Objectives The aim of this study was to evaluate sex differences in plaque morphology in stable coronary artery disease (CAD) patients using a multimodality intravascular imaging approach. Background Differences in atherosclerotic burden and plaque morphology between men and women is a focus of treatment and preventative measures. Methods We retrospectively analyzed data from 383 patients with stable CAD who were referred for angiography and underwent optical coherence tomography. Among them ...

      Plaque morphology predictors of side branch occlusion after provisional stenting in coronary bifurcation lesion: Results of optical coherence tomography bifurcation study (ORBID)
      Objectives The aim of this study was to identify the predictors of side branch (SB) ostial stenosis developed after provisional stenting of the main vessel (MV) using optical coherence tomography (OCT). Background Provisional stenting remains the main approach to treatment of bifurcation lesions; however, it may result in the narrowing of SB ostium. There is little information about underlying plaque morphology of the MV lesion and its potential impact on ...

      Aims: The aim of this study was to understand better the mechanisms of repair of plaque complications causing acute coronary syndrome. Methods and results: We used OCT in the acute phase and at follow-up (one to seven months) to investigate the plaque healing in 10 culprit plaques: five ruptured fibrous cap (RFC) and five intact fibrous cap (IFC) which were not treated with stent deployment and caused ST-segment elevation myocardial ...

      Multimodality Intravascular Imaging to Predict Periprocedural Myocardial Infarction During Percutaneous Coronary Intervention
      Objectives The aim of this study is to compare the relative merits of optical coherence tomography (OCT), intravascular ultrasound (IVUS), and near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) in patients with coronary artery disease for the prediction of periprocedural myocardial infarction (MI). Background Although several individual intravascular imaging modalities have been employed to predict periprocedural MI, it is unclear which of the imaging tools would best allow prediction of this complication. Methods We ...

      Clinical classification of plaque morphology in coronary disease
      In published post-mortem pathological studies, more than two-thirds of acute coronary events are associated with the rupture of lipid-rich, voluminous, and outwardly remodelled plaques covered by attenuated and inflamed fibrous caps in the proximal part of coronary arteries. Superficial erosion of the plaques is responsible for most of the remaining events; the eroded plaques usually do not demonstrate much lipid burden, do not have thin fibrous caps, are not positively ...

      Integrated IVUS-OCT for Real-Time Imaging of Coronary Atherosclerosis
      Accurate assessment of atherosclerotic plaque characteristics and the subsequent tailoring of optimal therapy holds great promise for preventing acute coronary syndromes (ACS) and life-threatening sequelae 1 . Combined use of optical coherence tomography (OCT) and intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) was proposed as a potential method for accurate assessment of plaque characteristics and vulnerability ( 2 , ). However, significant challenges remain in trying to adapt an integrated OCT-IVUS system for clinical applications. We report here ...
