Study Type: Observational Study Design: Observational Model: Defined Population Observational Model: Natural History Time Perspective: Longitudinal Time Perspective: Prospective
The natural history of individual plaques is unknown and needs to be established. Multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) angiography is a useful noninvasive imaging modality for assessing coronary plaque. Using MDCT, the researchers prospectively investigate the relationship between the presence of coronary plaques and cardiovascular events
