Moreno et al. (2002) conducted a review in High-risk atherosclerotic plaques. Spectroscopic methods (including near-IR spectroscopy) was evaluated. Spectroscopic methods, including near-IR spectroscopy, are surveyed for the identification of high-risk vulnerable atherosclerotic plaques (no quantitative data reported in the abstract).
