The American Journal of Cardiology
|September 20, 1997
Abstract:
Recent knowledge of the composition of coronary plaques is briefly reviewed, including factors that are considered to be responsible for the provocation of instability. Based on this information, possibilities for the early detection of threatening instability and measures to prevent destabilization of coronary plaques and to counteract thrombus formation are discussed.
