1. In order to improve our understanding of late stent thrombosis an dto access the individual risk of a patient or lesion, there is clinical need to assess vascular healing after stenting in vivo. We will discuss the potential and limitations of Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) for imaging of drug eluting stents (DES). (Read Full Article)
