Abstract

Rupture of high risk atherosclerotic plaque is responsible for acute vascular events such as myocardial infarction and sudden cardiac death. Several non-invasive vascular imaging methods have been developed to identify and characterise atherosclerotic plaques at risk of rupture. In this chapter we will discuss the background, rationale, and current state of non-invasive vascular imaging.
