Aim: To evaluate characteristics of atherosclerotic plaques (ASP) remaining after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) by coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA).
Material And Methods: Among 249 patients (193 men) with ACS aged 58±10 years, 183 (73.5%) had myocardial infarction, 66 (26.

Based on CTA findings, three-dimensional mathematical models were constructed for further calculation of FFRCTA.

Later the patients underwent invasive measurement of FFR and cardiac PCT on a 320-row detector tomograph in combination with the TE ECS stress test.

- The study aimed to evaluate the structural characteristics of atherosclerotic plaques in patients with acute coronary syndrome using coronary computed tomography arteriography (CCTA) and intravascular ultrasound (IVUS).
- Out of 37 patients, IVUS identified 45 unstable atherosclerotic plaques (UASP), including cases of rupture and thin-cap fibroatheromas, but no significant differences were found in plaque characteristics based on symptoms.
- Key findings showed that irregular plaque contours and low-density patches were significantly more prevalent in UASP compared to stable plaques, increasing the likelihood of plaque instability.
