Vulnerable plaque development is the result of a complex series of
molecular and cellular events involving inflammation, apoptosis,
rupture, and thrombosis. A detailed understanding of the mechanisms
underlying the development of high-risk plaques, along with the
ability to visualize and diagnose these vulnerable lesions, will
lead to the effective management of acute coronary syndromes.
High-Risk Atherosclerotic Plaques: Mechanisms, Imaging, Models, and
Therapy brings together timely, in-depth reviews by renowned
international cardiologists and scientists. Chapters cover the
definition, structure, and cellular and molecular mechanisms of
high risk plaque development, as well as animal models of
vulnerable plaque, plaque imaging, and current and future
therapies. Medical experts discuss intravascular ultrasound,
optimal coherence tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, and
coronary thermography. The final chapter reviews both current and
future local and systematic strategies for the therapeutic
management of vulnerable plaque. Exploring all aspects of this
primary cause of acute coronary syndromes, this informative book
updates our knowledge on the detection and treatment of vulnerable
plaques. It is a valuable resource that can greatly advance the
progress in treatment and prevention.
