To Cross or Not to Cross: Using MRI-Histology to Characterize Dense Collagenous Plaque in Critical Limb Ischemia

To Cross or Not to Cross: Using MRI-Histology to Characterize Dense Collagenous Plaque in Critical Limb Ischemia

Peripheral artery disease (PAD) is caused by atherosclerotic buildup in the lower extremities, leading to obstruction and inadequate perfusion to the peripheral vasculature. Impenetrable plaques initially treated with percutaneous vascular intervention (PVI) have led to worse secondary bypass outcom...
