Cellular imaging of human atherosclerotic lesions by intravascular electric impedance spectroscopy.

BACKGROUND: Newer techniques are required to identify atherosclerotic lesions that are prone to rupture. Electric impedance spectroscopy (EIS) is able to provide information about the cellular composition of biological tissue. The present study was performed to determine the influence of inflammator...
