Although coronary thrombus overlying a disrupted atherosclerotic plaque has long been
considered the hallmark and the primary therapeutic target for acute myocardial infarction …

Over the last few years, computed tomography (CT) has developed into a standard clinical
test for a variety of cardiovascular conditions. The emergence of cardiovascular CT during a …

Objectives: In a computed tomographic (CT) angiography study, we identified the
characteristics of atherosclerotic lesions that were associated with subsequent development …

Objectives We aimed to investigate if lesion-specific ischaemia by invasive fractional flow
reserve (FFR) can be predicted by an integrated machine learning (ML) ischaemia risk score …

Efficiently obtaining a reliable coronary artery centerline from computed tomography
angiography data is relevant in clinical practice. Whereas numerous methods have been …

As a consequence of improved technology, there is growing clinical interest in the use of
multi-detector row computed tomography (MDCT) for non-invasive coronary angiography …

Since the early 1960s, selective x-ray coronary angiogra-phy has provided the only means
of visualizing the coronary arterial system in vivo. However, it has several disadvantages …

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to investigate whether the use of a semiautomated
plaque quantification algorithm (reporting volumetric and geometric plaque properties) …

Purpose: To retrospectively compare image quality, radiation dose, and blood vessel
assessability for coronary artery computed tomographic (CT) angiograms obtained with a …

Sudden fibrous cap disruption of'high-risk'atherosclerotic plaques can trigger the formation
of an occlusive thrombus in coronary arteries, causing acute coronary syndromes. High-risk …
