Abstract:
Atherosclerotic plaque rupture and secondary thrombosis are main causes of cardiovascular events (MACE).The early identification of vulnerable plaque has great significance for clinical assessment of the risk of MACE and decision of treatment strategy in patients with high risk CAD.This review summarizes the research progress of noninvasive molecular imaging of vulnerable atherosclerosis plaques and the related molecular probes in recent years.
