High-resolution intravascular magnetic resonance quantification of atherosclerotic plaque at 3T

BACKGROUND: The thickness of fibrous caps (FCT) of atherosclerotic lesions is a critical factor affecting plaque vulnerability to rupture. This study tests whether 3 Tesla high-resolution intravascular cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) employing tiny loopless detectors can identify lesions and...
