Identification Of Morphologic And Inflammatory Predictors Of Instent-Restenosis Using CCTA
Introduction: Despite the introduction of drug-eluting stents and significant improvement of stent technology the occurrence of instent-restenosis (ISR) in the coronary arteries remains a major limitation with a substantial economic impact. The goal of this study was to identify CCTA-based plaque and perivascular characteristics which are predictive of ISR.
