- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method <p>This feasibility study will test different tracers for their feasibility to<br /><br>detect culprit lesions of patients with an ACS. Endpoints will be sufficient<br /><br>target to background uptake of tracer beyond 1.2 that coincides with the<br /><br>culprit lesion identified with general clinical information / CAG / OCT<br /><br>characteristics.</p><br>
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method <p>Kinetics of the three different PET tracers (11C-PK11195, 18F-AS101, or<br /><br>18F-Galacto-RGD)</p><br>
