The vulnerable and unstable atherosclerotic plaque
Cardiovascular Pathology, 2010The lesion responsible for the overwhelming majority of acute coronary events is plaque disruption or erosion with superimposed thrombosis. The term "vulnerable plaque" has been used to describe those atherosclerotic plaques that are particularly susceptible to disruption.

Life and death in the atherosclerotic plaque
Current Opinion in Lipidology, 2010Changes in cell mass in atherosclerosis represent changes in cell division, cell death and migration/emigration, all of which may be occurring simultaneously in different cell types at different times and in different regions of the plaque. This makes measurement of these individual processes and measurement of overall cell kinetics in atherosclerosis ...

Development of the Atherosclerotic Plaque
Hospital Practice, 1973After one has granted that hyperlipidemia and intimal deposition of lipid are primary factors in atherogenesis, the question remains of how to explain the progression to the fully developed, clinically important plaque. The evidence is reviewed that the medial smooth muscle cell, through its proliferation, migration, synthesis of collagen and other ...

Atherosclerotic Plaque Imaging
2017Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) remain the leading cause of death in western societies and developing countries despite improvements in prevention, diagnosis and treatment. Coronary artery disease (CAD) and myocardial infarction (MI) account for more than 50% of CVD deaths and are the result of coronary atherosclerosis and plaque rupture and subsequent ...

Targeting Atherosclerotic Plaques
2002Clinical imaging of atherosclerotic plaques is based on anatomical demonstration of the narrowing of the involved artery (1). Angioscopy (2) and intravascular ultrasound (3) can demonstrate the precise location of the lesions, the extent of luminal narrowing and plaque thickening. However, both methods are invasive and cannot provide the composition or
