Visualization of Vulnerable Coronary Plaque and Prevention of Plaque Rupture. [PDF]

open access: yesJuntendo Iji Zasshi
In daily clinical practice, assessing anatomical findings and the presence or absence of ischemia is pivotal for determining the need for percutaneous coronary intervention. However, concurrently, comprehending vulnerability can greatly assist in predicting future cardiovascular events and formulating preventive strategies for individual patients. This

Thrombosis formation on atherosclerotic lesions and plaque rupture

open access: yesJournal of Internal Medicine, 2014
Atherosclerosis is a silent chronic vascular pathology that is the cause of the majority of cardiovascular ischaemic events. The evolution of vascular disease involves a combination of endothelial dysfunction, extensive lipid deposition in the intima ...

Role Of Metalloproteinases in Plaque Rupture

open access: yesInternational Journal of Gerontology, 2007
Rupture of the fibrous cap over an atherosclerotic plaque is the main cause of myocardial infarctions and strokes. Plaques vulnerable to rupture have a relatively thin fibrous cap, are highly inflamed and contain less structural collagen.

Imaging Atherosclerosis and Risk of Plaque Rupture [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Atherosclerosis Reports, 2013
Atherosclerosis imaging strategies can delineate characteristics of plaques at risk of rupture and thrombosis. Structural plaque imaging identifies high-risk plaque features, including lipid pools, thin fibrous caps, and intraplaque hemorrhage. New molecular imaging techniques complement structural imaging approaches by illuminating important features ...

Single-Cell RNA Sequencing of Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells From Acute Myocardial Infarction

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2022
BackgroundAcute myocardial infarction (AMI) can occur in patients with atherosclerotic disease, with or without plaque rupture. Previous studies have indicated a set of immune responses to plaque rupture.

Platelet biology and function: plaque erosion vs. rupture

open access: yesEuropean Heart Journal, 2023
The leading cause of heart disease in developed countries is coronary atherosclerosis, which is not simply a result of ageing but a chronic inflammatory process that can lead to acute clinical events upon atherosclerotic plaque rupture or erosion and ...

Improving segmentation of calcified and non-calcified plaques on CCTA-CPR scans via masking of the artery wall [PDF]

open access: yesSPIE 12465, Medical Imaging 2023: Computer-Aided Diagnosis, 2022
The presence of plaques in the coronary arteries is a major risk to the patients' life. In particular, non-calcified plaques pose a great challenge, as they are harder to detect and more likely to rupture than calcified plaques. While current deep learning techniques allow precise segmentation of real-life images, the performance in medical images is ...
