Prediction of atherosclerotic disease progression using LDL transportmodelling: A serial computed tomographic coronary angiographic study

Aim To investigate the efficacy of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) transport simulation in reconstructed arteries derived from computed tomography coronary angiography (CTCA) to predict coronary segments that are prone to progress. Methods and results Thirty-Two patients admitted with an acute coronary event who underwent 64-slice CTCA after percutaneous coronary intervention and at 3-year follow-up were included in the analysis. The CTCA data wer
