Intracoronary Imaging: When to use IVUS and OCT
Author(s): Sudheer Koganti , Tushar Kotecha , Roby D Rakhit Added: 3 years ago
Intracoronary imaging is able to aid the interventional cardiologist in the characterisation of atherosclerotic plaque morphology, in optimising stent sizing, and in minimising the complications associated with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) and optical coherence tomography (OCT) are commonly used methods, while newer spectroscopic methods are under… View more

Role of Intravascular Ultrasound in Guiding Complex Percutaneous Coronary Interventions
Author(s): Brandon Quintana , Akram Ibrahim Added: 3 years ago
Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) has been rapidly evolving since its initial application in 1977. Over the years, it has become a mainstay of the treatment of coronary artery disease, including acute coronary syndromes and stable ischemic heart disease. With the advent of novel ancillary technologies, such as intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) and optical coherence tomography (OCT), it has… View more

OCT-guided Percutaneous Coronary Intervention in Bifurcation Lesions
Author(s): Luca Longobardo , Alessio Mattesini , Serafina Valente , et al Added: 3 years ago
Coronary artery bifurcation lesions are treated in 15–20% of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) procedures and are still plagued by worse outcomes.1 This is in spite of recent significant advancements in stent technology in general and in bifurcation stenting techniques in particular. Conventional angiography provides only limited information about bifurcation anatomy, plaque distribution… View more

Incomplete stent apposition (ISA) or stent malapposition is the lack of contact between stent struts and the underlying arterial wall. ISA has been associated with significantly higher levels of thrombus deposition1 and is typically assessed by intravascular imaging techniques such as optical coherence tomography (OCT) and intravascular ultrasound (IVUS).2–4 These imaging modalities are useful to… View more

Optimising the Use of Contemporary Invasive Imaging for PCI
Author(s): Joost Daemen , Paolo Canova Added: 2 years ago
Contemporary invasive imaging techniques improve the detection of coronary details and have great potential for improving clinical outcomes, due the lower risk of in-stent restenosis and thrombosis. Thiswebinar seriesprovides an overview of the current use of intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) and optical coherence tomography (OCT), the relative advantages of each technique and real-world insight… View more

Author(s): Nicolas M Van Mieghem Added: 3 years ago
Much has been said about the allegedly final frontiers in interventional cardiology. Is it long-term outcome regarding percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for multivessel coronary artery disease? Is it the safety and efficacy of PCI versus coronary artery bypass grafting in patients with diabetes? There is definitely a movement within the interventional cardiology community that says it is… View more
