1. A novel approach for quantitative analysis of intracoronary optical coherence tomography: high inter-observer agreement with computer-assisted contour detection. Catheter Cardiovasc Interv. 2008 Mar 6; Authors: Tanimoto S, Rodriguez-Granillo G, Barlis P, de Winter S, Bruining N, Hamers R, Knappen M, Verheye S, Serruys PW, Regar E Objective: This study aims to examine observer-related variability of quantitative optical coherence tomography (OCT) derived measurements from both in vitro and in vivo pullback data. Background: Intravascular OCT is a new imaging modality using infrared light and offering 10 times higher image resolution (15 mum) compared to intravascular ultrasound. The quantitative analysis of ... (Read Full Article)
