Read our Coronary Artery Disease research guide →This is a registry study that gathers information from patients who have had special heart imaging scans (called OCT or IVUS) during a heart catheterization procedure. Researchers want to learn which features of plaque buildup in the arteries are connected to future heart attacks and progression of heart disease.
Heart disease remains a leading cause of serious health events. By studying detailed images of plaque in patients' arteries, researchers hope to identify warning signs that could help doctors predict who is at higher risk and provide better treatment earlier.

If you join this registry, your heart imaging scans and medical information will be collected as part of your regular cardiac care. Researchers will follow your health records over time to see how your condition progresses and whether the plaque characteristics they observe on your scans are connected to any future heart events. There are no additional visits or procedures required beyond your standard heart care.
