Embolic protection device utilization during stenting of native coronary artery lesions with large lipid core plaques as detected by near-infrared spectroscopy

Background Stenting of large lipid core plaques (LCPs), as assessed by near‐infrared spectroscopy (NIRS), has been associated with periprocedural myocardial infarction (MI), possibly due to distal embolization. Methods An embolic protection device (EPD) was inserted before stenting in nine native co...
