Abstract
Increased neovascularization in atherosclerotic plaques is associated with plaque vulnerability. To date, however, an appropriate in vivo imaging modality that identifies this feature is lacking. The high-resolution of optical coherence tomography (OCT) may provide a chance to directly visualize plaque neovascularization. The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between microchannels in culprit plaques identified by OCT and plaque vulnerability in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD).
