New insights into fibrous cap thickness of vulnerable plaques assessed by optical coherence tomography

OBJECTIVE: Vulnerable plaques with fibrous cap thickness (FCT) of ≤65 μm are prone to rupture and/or thrombosis. However, plaques with FCT > 65 μm cause acute myocardial infarction and even sudden death. We aimed to investigate the relationship between 65 < FCT ≤ 80 μm and plaque rupture and/o...
