Coronary plaque volume quantification using coronary computed tomography angiography is associated with periprocedural myocardial injury in patients with chronic coronary syndrome
Key Points
To investigate the relationship between coronary plaque volume quantification using CCTA and periprocedural myocardial injury in chronic coronary syndrome patients.
Quantitative assessment of coronary plaque volume using coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA)
Assessment of myocardial injury post-percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI)
Analysis conducted in patients diagnosed with chronic coronary syndrome (CCS)
Association found between increased coronary plaque volume and higher rates of myocardial injury after PCI.
Patients with significant plaque volume experienced more periprocedural myocardial injury.
Abstract
In patients with CCS, quantitative plaque assessment using CCTA was associated with occurrence of PMI after PCI.
