Prediction Ability Of Pericoronary Fat Attenuation Index For Coronary In-stent Restenosis: A Pilot Study
Introduction: The pericoronary fat attenuation index (FAI) reflects the local coronary inflammation which is one of major mechanisms for in-stent restenosis (ISR). We aimed to validate the ability of pericoronary FAI to predict subsequent ISR in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).
