🔎How can imaging better guide CV risk stratification?
Find out in our MA on high-risk plaque characteristics in #JACCIMG :
🌐 30 studies>30,369 patients
🚨 CPCs associated with patient- and lesion-level MACE
📈 Plaques with >1 CPC had the highest accuracy for lesion-level MACE.

Combined MR and PET image–based classification of CS is associated with cardiac-related clinical outcomes in CS and appears to show stronger associations than either MR or PET alone. bit.ly/4b3Hxeg

Q: Are high-risk plaque features on coronary computed tomography angiography associated with vulnerable plaque on optical coherence tomography?

A: All 4 HRP features on CTA were associated with features of vulnerability on OCT.
