Atherosclerotic Plaque Healing

New England Journal of Medicine, 2021
Atherosclerotic Plaque Healing Atherosclerotic plaque rupture and erosion result in acute coronary syndromes. Plaque healing after initial disruption has been less extensively studied.

Imaging of atherosclerotic plaque

The International Journal of Cardiovascular Imaging, 2004
The behavior and composition of coronary atherosclerotic plaques are ultimately responsible for the threat of acute ischemic events in patients with coronary artery disease. Different imaging modalities have been developed over the last several years in order to better characterize the atherosclerotic plaque and attempt to predict those in peril of ...

Atherosclerotic plaque development

The International Journal of Biochemistry & Cell Biology, 2009
Atherosclerosis is now recognized as an inflammatory/immunomodulatory reaction to the presence of oxidized low-density lipoproteins within the arterial wall, often times in the setting of such risk factors as family history, hypercholesterolemia, high blood pressure, diabetes mellitus and smoking.

Development of atherosclerotic plaques

Acta Medica Scandinavica, 1985
ABSTRACT. Atherosclerosis is a multifactorial disease. A unified model for the lesion development reveals many connections between the response‐to‐injury hypothesis and the lipid hypothesis. Various cellular uptake mechanisms for native and modified lipoproteins are discussed with respect to foam cell formation and lesion development.

MR imaging of atherosclerotic plaque

Radiologic Clinics of North America, 2002
MRI is a powerful noninvasive imaging tool with high spatial resolution that continues to prove its value in determining atherosclerotic plaque size, volume, and tissue components. Multispectral MRI sequences have been validated to characterize atherosclerotic plaque components in animals; they have recently been applied to human aorta and carotid ...

Is regression of atherosclerotic plaque possible?

Clínica e Investigación en Arteriosclerosis (English Edition), 2017
As it is well-known, a thrombus evolving into a disrupted/eroded atherosclerotic plaque causes most acute coronary syndromes. Plaque stabilization via reduction of the lipid core and/or thickening of the fibrous cap is one of the possible mechanisms accounted for the clinical benefits displayed by different anti-atherosclerotic strategies.
