Don’t miss the ongoing Heart_SCCT #SCCT2024 Best Original Science Session where the #yesCCT superstars of tomorrow are presenting their original🫀research, including Márton Kolossváry from Mass General Imaging #SeokhunYang from Seoul National University and Brittany Weber from Brigham and Women’s Cardiovascular Imaging Program - Good luck all!🎉

Pericoronary adipose tissue (PCAT) attenuation in #yesCCT: -> Heavily depending on vessel attenuation, recon kernel, monoenergetic level Can we really rely on the HU numbers? shorturl.at/a5vcy Please see our new article AJR with porcine heart experiments

The 2024 IAP YPL cohort is meeting this morning for the first time to attend two days of leadership training at ESMT Berlin. On Sunday they will start preparing this World Health Summit session. Come and see what they achieved in just 48 hours!

Another piece to show that we should be very cautious when interpreting PCAT in #yesCCT -> Intraindividual variation up to 33HU with different kernels and IR strengths! link.springer.com/10.1007/s00330… European Radiology Matthias Eberhard Mergen Victor Robert Manka Cardiology USZ Radiologie USZ

Can #radiomic phenotypes help improve MACE prediction beyond plaque burden? Does plaque morphology play a role in long-term outcomes? Long-term SCOT-HEART analysis 👇Andrew Lin Damini Dey imagingmedsci jacc.org/doi/10.1016/j.…

“Coronary Plaque Radiomic Phenotypes Predict Fatal or Nonfatal Myocardial Infarction: Analysis of the SCOT-HEART Trial” Another fantastic analysis of the SCOT-HEART trial focusing on the prediction of Acute MI through radiomics. Background and Objectives The study aims to

Ever wonder why 💊statins ⬇️ LDL results in plaque stabilization? Why delipidation of plaques also results in a fibrotic transformation? We show a novel mechanism of statins to increase collagen expression which results in plaque stabilization. A new 💊 target?! Find out more 👇

Radiomics – seeing deeper into CCT plaque? Radiomics-based precision phenotyping of coronary plaque morphology improved prediction (c-statistic 0.7 to 0.74) of #cvMI by #YesCCT over & above clinical factors & plaque burden in the SCOT-HEART trial. jacc.org/doi/10.1016/j.… #JACCIMG

There are so many configurations how plaque components may be distributed in plaques. Why wouldn’t it matter? It’s time to accept that not only quantity, but also quality that is important 🫀

It is a huge honor to have received this years JACC Imaging award 🏆named after Prof. Narula. Shout out to the #SCOTHEART team for making this possible! Stay tuned! I have some every exciting projects coming later this year, that hope to transform how we do CV research 🔬

REPRIEVE trial: People with HIV are at increased risk of cardiovascular events due to noncalcified coronary plaque (NCP); pitavastatin reduces MACE and NCP volume, likely through collagen pathways, independent of LDL-C levels. ja.ma/3FGp2Sa REPRIEVE Trial
