Advanced Coronary Plaque Morphology Assessment Using Photon-counting Detection and Invasive Coronary Imaging (ACDC)

November 18, 2024 updated by: Eva Steinacher, Medical University of Vienna

This clinical trial aims to compare non-invasive photon-counting detector computed tomography (PCD-CT) with invasive intravascular imaging (IVI) for post-interventional follow-up in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD).

Participants will undergo post-interventional follow-up using both PCD-CT and coronary angiography with IVI. Researchers will test qualitative and quantitative PCD-CT results for non-inferiority to IVI regarding stent evaluation and detection of in-stent restenosis and plaque morphology.
