T1-weighted MRI unscanned coronary hyperintensity plaques (HIPs) are associated with poor clinical outcomes
.
In the carotid artery, intraplaque hemorrhage (IPH) is considered to be the main source of hyperintensity
Shunya Sato et al.
compared CATCH MRI scans and near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) images to determine whether the main substrate of HIPs on T1-weighted images is intraplaque hemorrhage (IPH) or lipids
.
The research results were published in the journal Radiology
Blood vessel
The study retrospectively included consecutive patients who underwent CATCH MRI before NIRS IVUS at two centers from December 2019 to February 2021

On MRI, HIP is defined as the ratio of plaque to myocardial signal intensity of at least 1.

In IVUS (reporting on behalf of IPH) the presence of an echo band was recorded
On MRI, HIP is defined as the ratio of plaque to myocardial signal intensity of at least 1.
A total of 205 plaques were analyzed in 95 patients (median age 74 years; interquartile range [IQR], 67-78 years; 75 men)
