Investigation of PET tracers for their ability to determine coronary stenosis at risk for rupture.

Phase 1
Conditions
The IMP (PET-tracer) will be investigated in patients 24-72 hours after an acute coronary syndrome without excessive enzyme release (CK < 180 U/L) during PET scanning protocol.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Main Objective: The objective is to study the feasibility of different PET tracers to detect vulnerable plaques in patients with a recent acute coronary syndrome and co-localize these inflammatory lesions with anatomical plaque features obtained with CT based coronary angiography (CCTA).;Secondary Objective: Pharmacokinetics of the PET-tracers;Primary end point(s): This feasibility study will test different tracers for their feasibility to detect culprit lesions of patients with an ACS. Endpoints will be sufficient target to background uptake of tracer beyond 1.2 that coincides with the culprit lesion identified with OCT;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: On per patient basis evaluation will be reached within one week. On per study basis inclusion will be performed within one year, thereby endpoint will be reached.
