Abstract
Even with emerging evidence that the use of intracoronary imaging techniques can significantly support the interventional procedure, the use of intracoronary imaging during catheterization procedures still remains comparatively low. With the help of intracoronary imaging percutaneous coronary interventions can be optimized and fundamental information about the plaque morphology can be archived. This is not only beneficial in determining plaque vulnerability but can also assist in the interventional approach of complex lesions including calcified lesions, as well as lesions causing an acute coronary syndrome. Especially in the context of the latter, identification of the underlying entity may provide alternative personalized approaches for patients with acute coronary syndrome.
