Résumé

Inflamed, prone-to-rupture coronary plaques are an important cause of myocardial infarction and their early identification is crucial. Atherosclerotic plaques are characterized by overexpression of the type-2 somatostatin receptor (SST In this retrospective study, 108 oncological patients underwent [ A total of 66 patients (61.1%) presented with calcified coronary artery plaques. Of these, 32 patients had increased [ [
