Near-Infrared Spectroscopy Intravascular-Ultrasound-Guided Intervention in Minimal Coronary Artery Stenosis: A Case Report.

ABSTRACT: Near-infrared spectroscopy intravascular ultrasounds (NIRS-IVUSs) can identify high-risk plaque morphologies associated with future event risk. However, the usage of NIRS-IVUSs is not universal. We report a case with insignificant coronary angiography (CAG) and high-risk NIRS-IVUS findings. A 58-year-old man with exertional dyspnea was admitted for a CAG evaluation. The CAG of the patient demonstrated mild angiographic stenosis in the mid-left anterior descending artery. However, NIRS-IVUS revealed a high maximum lipid core burden index at 4 mm (MaxLCBI4mm) and an intraluminal calcific protrusion with severe luminal stenosis at the lesion. Therefore, the patient was diagnosed as stable angina, and a drug-eluting stent was implanted in the lesion. A post-stent NIRS-IVUS demonstrated improved MaxLCBI4mm and significantly improved luminal stenosis. The patient did not have any procedural complications. In the present case, a patient with insignificant CAG demonstrated multiple high-risk features on NIRS-IVUS. Therefore, a percutaneous coronary intervention was performed. The presented case highlights the utility of NIRS-IVUS in nonobstructive CAG.

Project description:AimsCoronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) is inferior to intravascular imaging in detecting plaque morphology and quantifying plaque burden. We aim to, for the first time, train a deep-learning (DL) methodology for accurate plaque quantification and characterization in CCTA using near-infrared spectroscopy-intravascular ultrasound (NIRS-IVUS).Methods and resultsSeventy patients were prospectively recruited who underwent CCTA and NIRS-IVUS imaging. Corresponding cross sections were matched using an in-house developed software, and the estimations of NIRS-IVUS for the lumen, vessel wall borders, and plaque composition were used to train a convolutional neural network in 138 vessels. The performance was evaluated in 48 vessels and compared against the estimations of NIRS-IVUS and the conventional CCTA expert analysis. Sixty-four patients (186 vessels, 22 012 matched cross sections) were included. Deep-learning methodology provided estimations that were closer to NIRS-IVUS compared with the conventional approach for the total atheroma volume (ΔDL-NIRS-IVUS: -37.8 ± 89.0 vs. ΔConv-NIRS-IVUS: 243.3 ± 183.7 mm3, variance ratio: 4.262, P < 0.001) and percentage atheroma volume (-3.34 ± 5.77 vs. 17.20 ± 7.20%, variance ratio: 1.578, P < 0.001). The DL methodology detected lesions more accurately than the conventional approach (Area under the curve (AUC): 0.77 vs. 0.67, P < 0.001) and quantified minimum lumen area (ΔDL-NIRS-IVUS: -0.35 ± 1.81 vs. ΔConv-NIRS-IVUS: 1.37 ± 2.32 mm2, variance ratio: 1.634, P < 0.001), maximum plaque burden (4.33 ± 11.83% vs. 5.77 ± 16.58%, variance ratio: 2.071, P = 0.004), and calcific burden (-51.2 ± 115.1 vs. -54.3 ± 144.4, variance ratio: 2.308, P < 0.001) more accurately than conventional approach. The DL methodology was able to segment a vessel on CCTA in 0.3 s.ConclusionsThe DL methodology developed for CCTA analysis from co-registered NIRS-IVUS and CCTA data enables rapid and accurate assessment of lesion morphology and is superior to expert analysts (Clinicaltrials.gov: NCT03556644).
