Association of Low-Attenuation Noncalcified Plaque Shape and Degree of Intraplaque Embeddedness Using Atherosclerotic Imaging–enabled Quantitative CT with Acute Coronary Syndrome

Adverse low-attenuation noncalcified plaque morphology using atherosclerotic imaging-enabled quantitative CT (ie, lobular, bean, or spherical low-attenuation noncalcified plaque shape or low-attenuation noncalcified plaque with ≥ 180° of embeddedness) was independently associated with acute coronary syndrome.

Abstract

Adverse low-attenuation noncalcified plaque morphology using atherosclerotic imaging-enabled quantitative CT (ie, lobular, bean, or spherical low-attenuation noncalcified plaque shape or low-attenuation noncalcified plaque with ≥ 180° of embeddedness) was independently associated with acute coronary syndrome.
