A novel deep learning model for a computed tomography diagnosis of coronary plaque erosion [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2023 Patients with acute coronary syndromes caused by plaque erosion might be managed conservatively without stenting. Currently, the diagnosis of plaque erosion requires an invasive imaging procedure.

Can OCT change the therapeutic strategy in ACS due to plaque erosion? [PDF]
Indian Heart Journal, 2021 The pathophysiology of acute coronary syndromes was thought to be coronary thrombosis over a plaque rupture. Autopsy studies revealed that not all cases were due to plaque rupture, even denuded endothelium or calcific nodule can beget a thrombus ...

Clinical and Laboratory Predictors for Plaque Erosion in Patients With Acute Coronary Syndromes [PDF]
Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2019 Background Plaque erosion is responsible for 25% to 40% of patients with acute coronary syndromes (ACS). Recent studies suggest that anti‐thrombotic therapy without stenting may be an option for this subset of patients.

Diagnostic Performance of 60 MHz High-Definition Intravascular Ultrasound versus Fourier Domain Optical Coherence Tomography for Identifying Plaque Rupture, Plaque Erosion, and Thrombosis in a Rabbit Model [PDF]
Reviews in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2023 Background: Most acute coronary syndromes occur due to coronary thrombosis caused by plaque rupture (PR) and plaque erosion (PE). Precise in vivo differentiation between PR and PE is challenging for intravascular imaging.

Recurrent Plaque Erosion in a Young Patient
Annals of Internal Medicine: Clinical Cases, 2023 Plaque erosion is one of the important mechanisms of acute coronary syndromes. We report the first case of recurrent plaque erosion in a different vessel 9 years after the initial episode.
