What This Trial Is Studying

Coronary artery disease, caused by the furring up of the heart arteries by atherosclerosis, is a major cause of death in the UK. Despite existing therapies, adverse cardiovascular events remains high, especially in patients who have already had a heart attack, as some of these patients have aggressive atherosclerotic disease. If we could identify these vulnerable patients, then in wider clinical practice in the future we might be able to treat them better with new therapies that can otherwise be expensive or come with a risk of side-effects. Traditionally, the…

Eligibility Snapshot
  • : * Able and willing to give informed consent * Between ages 18-79 * Patients with a stable coronary syndrome that had recent PC-CTA showing at least one lesion requiring further evaluation with intravascular imaging or fractional flow reserve and is considered suitable for PCI under IVUS guidance
