Brief summary
Coronary microvascular dysfunction (CMD) carries an increased risk of adverse cardiovascular clinical outcomes. The association between fundus microcirculation changes and coronary microcirculation is not well understood. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) and optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) is a new type of optical diagnostic imaging technology for non-invasive detection, which can perform multi-dimensional quantitative assessment of fundus microcirculation. In this study, investigators intend to use the coronary angiography-derived index of microvascular resistance (caIMR) to screen patients with CMD, explore the relationship between relevant parameters based on OCT and OCTA measurements and caIMR, and evaluate the feasibility and clinical value of non-invasive identification of CMD through fundus OCT and OCTA.
Detailed description
Coronary microvascular dysfunction (CMD) is defined as the clinical syndrome of angina and electrocardiographic ischemic changes in the absence of obstructive coronary artery disease. CMD carries an increased risk of adverse cardiovascular clinical outcomes. Assessment of CMD is performed with different diagnostic modalities, including nuclear myocardial scintigraphy, cardiac magnetic resonance, doppler echocardiography, and coronary microcirculation resistance index techniques. However, current examination techniques have limitations such as radiation risk, high cost, and time-consuming, so they cannot be widely screened in the population. Previous studies have shown that fundus vascular changes were strongly associated with cardiovascular events, but the correlation between fundus microcirculation changes and coronary microcirculation is not well understood. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) and optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) is a new type of optical diagnostic imaging technology for non-invasive detection, which use infrared light projection onto fundus tissue to achieve real-time tomographic section imaging, which can perform multi-dimensional quantitative assessment of fundus microcirculation. In this study, investigators intend to use the coronary angiography-derived index of microvascular resistance (caIMR) to screen patients with CMD, explore the relationship between relevant parameters based on OCT and OCTA measurements and caIMR, and evaluate the feasibility and clinical value of non-invasive identification of CMD through fundus OCT and OCTA.
Interventions
