PurposeThe predictive value of18F-sodium fluoride (18F-NaF) positron emission tomography (PET) in combination with coronary computed tomography (CT) angiography (CCTA) for future coronary events has attracted interest. We evaluated the potential of18F-NaF PET/CT following CCTA to predict major coronary events (MACE) during a 5-year follow-up period.MethodsForty patients with coronary atherosclerotic lesions detected on CCTA underwent18F-NaF PET/CT examination. Each lesion was evaluated for luminal stenosis and high-risk plaque (HRP) with < 30 Hounsfield units and a > 1.1 remodeling index on CCTA. Focal18F-NaF uptake in each lesion was quantified using the maximum tissue-to-background ratio (TBRmax), and the maximum TBRmaxper patient (M-TBRmax) was determined. We followed MACE (cardiac death, acute coronary syndrome, and/or coronary revascularization > 6 months after18F-NaF PET/CT) for 5 years.ResultsIn total, 142 coronary lesions were analyzed. Eleven patients experienced any MACE. Patients with MACE showed a higher M-TBRmaxthan those without (1.40 ± .19 vs. 1.18 ± .18,P= .0011), and the optimal M-TBRmaxcutoff to predict MACE was 1.29. Patients with M-TBRmaxof ≥ 1.29 had a higher risk of MACE than those with lower values (P= .012, log-rank test), whereas patients with obstructive stenosis and those with HRP did not. Multivariate Cox proportional analysis adjusted for age, sex, coronary risk factors, and CCTA findings showed that M-TBRmaxof ≥ 1.29 remained an independent predictor of 5-year MACE (hazard ratio, 5.4; 95% confidence interval, 1.1–25.4;P= .034).Conclusion18F-NaF PET/CT following CCTA provides useful strategies to predict 5-year MACE.
