Necrotic core thickness and positive arterial remodeling index: emergent biomechanical factors for evaluating the risk of plaque rupture
Jacques Ohayon,Gérard Finet,Ahmed M. Gharib,Daniel A. Herzka,Daniel A. Herzka,Philippe Tracqui,Julie Heroux,Gilles Rioufol,Melanie Suzanne Kotys,Abdalla Elagha,Roderic I. Pettigrew +10 more
TL;DR: It was found that at the early stages of positive remodeling, lesions were more prone to rupture, which could explain the progression and growth of clinically silent plaques and in addition to cap thickness, necrotic core thickness, rather than area, was critical in determining plaque stability.

Jacques Ohayon,Ahmed M. Gharib,A. García,Julie Heroux,Saami K. Yazdani,M. Malvè,Philippe Tracqui,Miguel Ángel Martínez,Manuel Doblaré,Gérard Finet,Roderic I. Pettigrew +10 more
TL;DR: Findings suggest that local wall stiffness plays a role in the initiation of atherosclerotic lesions.

High-Affinity αvβ3 Integrin Targeted Optical Probe as a New Imaging Biomarker for Early Atherosclerosis: Initial Studies in Watanabe Rabbits
Julie Heroux,Ahmed M. Gharib,Narasimhan S. Danthi,Sylvain Cecchini,Jacques Ohayon,Roderic I. Pettigrew +5 more
TL;DR: This high-affinity ITOP identifies the site and extent of αvβ3 expression and correlates with adventitial thickness, making this compound a promising potential biomarker for early atherosclerotic disease.
Profile order and time-dependent artifacts in contrast-enhanced coronary MR angiography at 3T: origin and prevention.
Melanie Suzanne Kotys,Melanie Suzanne Kotys,Daniel A. Herzka,Daniel A. Herzka,Evertjan Vonken,Jacques Ohayon,Jacques Ohayon,Julie Heroux,Ahmed M. Gharib,Matthias Stuber,Roderic I. Pettigrew +10 more
TL;DR: A uniform bilateral shadowing artifact observed along the coronary arteries in MRA images collected using a high‐relaxivity contrast agent is examined to determine how best to mitigate this effect, and to optimize a data acquisition/injection scheme.
