Abstract excerpt

We used virtual histology intravascular ultrasound (VH-IVUS) to assess culprit plaque rupture in 172 patients with ST-segment elevation acute myocardial infarction. VH-IVUS-defined thin-capped fibroatheroma (VH-TCFA) had necrotic core (NC) > 10% of plaque area, plaque burden > 40%, and NC in contact with the lumen for ≥ 3 image slices. Ruptured plaques were present in 72 patients, 61% of which were located in the...
