REvelation of PAthophySiological PhenotypeS of VUlneRable Lipid-Rich PlaquE on Near-InfraRed Spectroscopy: REASSURE-NIRS
RESSURE-NIRS registry is designed to investigate clinical and pathophysiological characteristics of NIRS-derived lipid-rich plaque in patients with coronary artery disease. This is an on-going multi-center prospective registry in Japan.
Inclusion: patients with coronary artery disease clinical indication for coronary angiography and/or percutaneous coronary intervention visualization of coronary lesions with NIRS.
Exclusion: poor quality of NIRS images.
