Vulnerable Plaque Detection and Quantification with Gold Particle–Enhanced Computed Tomography in Atherosclerotic Mouse Models
Recently, an apolipoprotein E–deficient (ApoE −/− ) mouse model with a mutation (C1039G+/−) in the fibrillin-1 ( Fbn1 ) gene (ApoE −/− Fbn1 C1039G+/− mouse model) was developed showing vulnerable atherosclerotic plaques, prone to rupture, in contrast to the ApoE −/− mouse model, where mainly stable...
