Effect of quantitative parameters of contrast-enhanced ultrasound on the long-term prognosis of patients with chronic coronary syndrome.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Ultrasound is one of the most commonly used examination methods in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) and is valuable in evaluating patient prognosis. Although contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) can assess more in depth the vascular lesions of patients, there is still a lack of relevant research on the value of quantitative parameters of CEUS in predicting the long-term prognosis of patients with chronic coronary syndrome (CCS), thus, we designed this study.

Methods

From January 2016 to December 2017, a total of 473 patients with CCS admitted to Yueyang People's Hospital were retrospectively enrolled. The patients were followed up for five years. According to whether the patients had major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE), patients were divided into
