Usefulness of quantitative and qualitative angiographic lesion morphology, and clinical characteristics in predicting major adverse cardiac events during and after native coronary balloon angioplasty [PDF]
Major, adverse cardiac events (death, myocardial infarction, bypass surgery and reintervention) occur in 4 to 7% of all patients undergoing coronary balloon angioplasty. Prospectively collected clinical data, and angiographic quantitative and qualitative

The feasibility of in vivo coronary angioscopy was tested utilizing a 1.8 mm angioscope in vessels where blood had been replaced by optically clear liquids, including a new perfluorocarbon emulsion. After trials in postmortem canine and human coronary arteries, in vivo intraluminal visualization was accomplished in the dog with a catheterization ...

ABSTRACT Spontaneous recanalized coronary thrombus (SRCT) has been identified in autopsy studies as multiple interconnected channels separated by thin septa. Despite its potential clinical significance, SRCT remains underdiagnosed. Recent advances in intracoronary imaging, including optical coherence tomography (OCT), have elucidated its ...

New developments in the diagnosis and management of cardiac allograft vasculopathy [PDF]
The major cause of late death in cardiac transplant recipients is cardiac allograft vasculopathy, also referred to as cardiac transplant atherosclerosis, which occurs in as many as 45% of transplant recipients who survive longer than 1 year.

Optimizing flushing parameters in intracoronary optical coherence tomography: an in vivo swine study [PDF]
Intracoronary optical frequency domain imaging (OFDI), requires the displacement of blood for clear visualization of the artery wall. Radiographic contrast agents are highly effective at displacing blood however, may increase the risk of contrast-induced

ABSTRACT Background High‐intensity statins are recommended for patients with chronic coronary artery disease, with reports suggesting improved clinical outcomes. However, recent findings in coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) patients question whether a treat‐to‐target low density lipoprotein (LDL) approach is non‐inferior to high‐intensity statin ...

Ischemia-Related Lesion Characteristics in Patients With Stable or Unstable Angina [PDF]
Background Postmortem-derived findings support the common beliefs that lipid-rich coronary plaques with a thin, fibrous cap are prone to rupture and that rupture and superimposed thrombosis are the primary mechanisms causing acute coronary syndromes.
