Abstract
The use of intracoronary imaging (ICI) in the form of intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) and optical coherence tomography (OCT) is associated with improved periprocedural and long-term clinical outcomes in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). The advantage of ICI becomes even greater when treating patients with complex lesion morphology or acute coronary syndrome.1 ICI allows real-time assessment of lesion characteristics and plaque morphology, collection of detailed information about vessel anatomy and size, and assessment of stent apposition and expansion.
