Early microcalcification is a feature of coronary plaques with an increased propensity to rupture and to cause acute coronary syndromes. In this ex vivo imaging study of coronary artery specimens, the non-invasive imaging radiotracer,
18
F-fluoride, was highly selective for hydroxyapatite deposition in atherosclerotic coronary plaque. Specifi...
