DOI: 10.1007/s12149-020-01458-7
Abstract: Most of the acute ischemic events, such as acute coronary syndromes and stroke, are attributed to vulnerable plaques. These lesions have common histological and pathophysiological features, including inflammatory cell infiltration, neo-angiogenesis, remodelling, haemorrhage predisposition, thin… read more here.

DOI: 10.1021/acsnano.6b07842
Abstract: Owing to the high mortality rate of cardiovascular diseases, developing novel noninvasive diagnostic methods becomes urgent and mandatory. It is well-known that the rupture of vulnerable plaques directly leads to deadly consequences. However, differentiating vulnerable… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/abbs/gmz155
Abstract: Pathological studies have shown that the vulnerability of plaques affects outcomes in patients with atherosclerosis (AS), a chronic inflammatory disease and common cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Although emerging technologies have enabled early diagnosis… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/bph.15347
Abstract: Cardiovascular disease affects a significant proportion of the population with global prevalence of 6,081 per 100,000 (Virani et al., 2020). Most core risk factors are well characterised and can be controlled with interventions, also meaning… read more here.

DOI: 10.1177/00033197211012531
Abstract: We compared plaque characteristics between symptomatic and asymptomatic sides in patients with bilateral carotid vulnerable plaques using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Participants (n = 67; mean age: 65.8 ± 7.7 years, 61 males) with bilateral… read more here.

DOI: 10.1364/boe.430064
Abstract: The main indicator for endarterectomy is the grade of stenosis, which results in severe overtreatment. Photoacoustic imaging (PAI) can provide patient-specific assessment of plaque morphology, and thereby vulnerability. A pilot study of PAI on carotid… read more here.

DOI: 10.1536/ihj.22-248
Abstract: Stabilization of aortic vulnerable plaques has not been fully elucidated. Non-obstructive general angioscopy (NOGA) is a novel method for the detailed evaluation of atheromatous plaques in the aortic intimal wall. A 57-year-old man presenting with… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fcvm.2022.876730
Abstract: Background Aside from the culprit plaque, the presence of vulnerable plaques in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) may be associated with future cardiac events. A link between calcification and plaque rupture has been previously… read more here.
