Is the process of stabilization of carotid plaque more dynamic than expected? a high-resolution 3D-CMR statin-naive human study

Year: 2011
Type: article
Abstract: Atherosclerosis is a dynamic process thought to stabilize with statin therapy. However, the uniformity of plaque stabilization and subsequent regression when examined under high-resolution 3D CMR is unknown. We hypothesize that plaque characteristics illustrate marked heterogeneity with both plaque regression and progression as lipid lowering therapy is instituted.
