A 65-year-old man was followed for his coronary conditions using 320-multi detector row computed tomography (MDCT) for 30 months. He had soft plaque in the right coronary artery (RCA) [mean density of plaque was 22 hounsfield units (HU)]. ⋯ MDCT showed a regression of the plaque in the RCA and the plaque density was 114 HU (intermediate plaque). In conclusion, intensive lipid-lowering therapy with evolocumab induced the regression and stabilization of coronary vulnerable plaque.
