• Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that high-risk plaque on MDCT and high-intensity plaque on MRI were significant independent predictors of periprocedural myocardial injury (PMI). • Target lesions with high-risk plaque on MDCT and high-intensity plaque on CMR were significantly more likely to develop PMI. • In 141 plaques with ≥ 50% stenosis, patients with PMI were significantly more likely to have high-risk plaques on MDCT and high-intensity plaque on CMR in target and non-target lesions.
