Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • assess the concordance between the detection of 99mTc-Annexin-V-128 uptake on scintigraphy in carotid plaques with SPECT and the presence of complicated plaques on histology obtained after carotid endarterectomy

    Concordance will be assessed by Cohen's kappa coefficient between: \- detection of 99mTc-Annexin-V-128 uptake on scintigraphy in the carotid bulb localized using the CTA 90 minutes after injection of the radiotracer ipsi-lateral to the carotid endarterectomy. And \- presence of complicated atherosclerotic plaques after carotid endarterectomy validated by an Endpoint Adjudication Committee composed of vascular surgeons and pathologists that will review macroscopical aspects of carotid specimen and histology of all explanted carotid plaques.

    no later than one month after baseline.

Secondary Outcomes (5)

  • to evaluate the correlation between the intensity of 99mTc-Annexin-V-128 uptake detected on SPECT and the expression of Annexin-V on immuno-histology of carotid plaques

    no later than one month after baseline.

  • to evaluate the relationship between the intensity of 99mTc-Annexin-V-128 uptake detected on SPECT and the morphological aspects of plaques on histology

    no later than one month after baseline.

  • to assess diagnostic performance of 99mTc-Annexin-V-128 scintigraphy for the detection of complicated carotid plaques detected on histology in patients referred for carotid endarterectomy.

    no later than one month after baseline.

  • to compare the intensity of the 99mTc-Annexin-V-128 uptake in ipsilateral (symptomatic) and contralateral (asymptomatic) carotid artery.

    no later than one month after baseline.

  • to test the intra- and inter-operator reproducibility of the analysis of 99mTc-Annexin-V-128 uptake in carotid bulb

    no later than one month after baseline.

Interventions

An intravenous catheter will be placed in the forearm and a dose of 370 Mega-Becquerels of 99mTc-Annexin-V-128 (1-2 ml) over 10 seconds will be injected through the catheter. The patient will wait for 90 minutes in semi-supine position for the clearance of the radiotracer from blood. At 90 minutes p.i., the patient will be placed in a supine position on the bed of a SPECT-CT gamma-camera. A SPECT acquisition including the heart and the brain will be performed over 20 minutes. At the end of the SPECT acquisition, the bed will move to the CT of the imaging system. A CT angiography will be acquired during the intravenous injection of 30-40 ml of iodinated CT contrast agent from the heart to the brain to localize the signal on the SPECT images. The iodinated contrast agent that is currently available at Bichat Hospital for CTA is Iomeron 400 provided by Bracco Imaging. The total duration of the imaging study will be 2 hours.
