Residual platelet reactivity, thrombus burden and myocardial reperfusion in patients treated by PCI after successful pre-hospital fibrinolysis compared to primary PCI
We compared residual platelet reactivity and post PCI atherothrombotic burden using OFDI in patients successfully treated by primary PCI versus pharmacoinvasive approach (PI) defined as PCI after successful pr...

Plaque erosion versus rupture characterization by optical frequency domain imaging before and after coronary stenting following successful fibrinolysis for ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction
Intracoronary thrombus burden affects the quality of myocardial reperfusion in the setting of ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). We aimed to study the characteristics of the plaque and thrombus assess...

Angles between the aortic root and the left ventricle assessed by MDCT are associated with the risk of aortic regurgitation after transcatheter aortic valve replacement
To evaluate the impact of the angles quantified by multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) between the ascending aorta’s long axis and, the left ventricular inflow long axis (LVLA), or the left ventricule out...
