Coronary artery disease remains the top global cause of death, yet standard angiography cannot visualize dangerous artery plaque, creating gaps for guiding percutaneous coronary intervention. This narrative review synthesizes 10 years of human studies, clinical trials and consensus documents covering established and emerging intravascular imaging plus computational tools. Hybrid catheter systems have completed first‑in‑human testing, while artificial‑intelligence plaque analysis delivers diagnostic accuracy comparable to expert readers. These technologies enable combined anatomical, compositional and functional vessel assessment, though broad clinical roll‑out still requires standardized validation and streamlined workflow integration.

A research team has found that physicians in Türkiye are highly willing to request BRCA1/2 genetic testing for eligible patients, but the broader cascade-testing process often fails to reach relatives who may carry the same cancer-predisposing variants.
A research team found that Acceptance and Commitment Therapy Plus (ACT+), a psychological intervention tailored for people living with and beyond cancer, was perceived as a meaningful and acceptable form of support by survivors experiencing reduced quality of life.
