Vasa Vasorum Imaging
ASYMPTOMATIC ATHEROSCLEROSIS: PATHOPHYSIOLOGY, DETECTION AND TREATMENT(2010)
摘要
The majority of acute coronary syndromes are the result of coronary plaque rupture. Recent studies have revealed the presence of neovascularization in and around the plaque to be a common feature of presumed rupture-prone (vulnerable) plaques. Intravascular ultrasound combined with contrast enhancement agents has been shown to be useful for the detection and quantification of vasa vasorum (VV) and angiogenesis within the vessel wall. In this chapter, the two state-of-the-art techniques for VV imaging are reviewed.
