DOI: 10.1001/jamacardio.2021.5705
Abstract: Importance Distinct plaque locations and vessel geometric features predispose to altered coronary flow hemodynamics. The association between these lesion-level characteristics assessed by coronary computed tomographic angiography (CCTA) and risk of future acute coronary syndrome (ACS)… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ccd.30659
Abstract: Calcifications exert a barrier to any therapy a physician wants to deliver to diseased arteries: in case of stents, calcifications hamper their expansion and thus may lead to malapposition or underexpansion. As a consequence, a… read more here.
