Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Describe the morphology of the microstructures present in the plates verified by the method of visualization of cholesterol crystals, neovascularization, spotty calcification, calcified nodules and thrombi documented by optical Coherence Tomography using the software QCU-CMS version 3.0, LKEB, Leiden University, the Netherland and presented as a percentage parameter from the finding of statistical difference;Describe the presence of fibrotic plaque, thick-layered fibroateroma, thin-layered, fibrocalcified and fibrolipidic fibroateroma documented by optical Coherence Tomography using the QCU-CMS version 3.0, LKEB, Leiden University, the Netherland software and presented as a percentage parameter a from the finding of statistical difference.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
To identify the predictive factors for plaque rupture and thin-cap fibroatheroma by the method of crossing data from patients' medical records and their clinical condition presented as a percentage parameter based on the finding of statistical difference.;Describe the clinical, demographic and previous use of medications using the method of retrospective analysis of patients' medical records presented as a percentage parameter based on the finding of statistical difference.;Quantitatively describe (cavity area, proximal reference, distal reference, minimum luminal area, cavity length, CASS) the characteristics of atheromatous plaques analyzed using the susceptive measurement method in the QCU-CMS version 3.0, LKEB, Leiden University, the Netherland software presented as a percentage parameter from the finding of statistical difference.
