  4. Imaging atherosclerotic plaque composition with intracoronary optical coherence tomography

    Explore Article Netherlands Heart Journal (Dec 2 2009) Cardiology

    Imaging atherosclerotic plaque composition with intracoronary optical coherence tomography Optical coherence tomography (OCT) allows highly accurate diagnosis of atherosclerotic plaques, including measurement of the thickness of fibrous caps, permitting an assessment of the risk of rupture. While the OCT image presents morphological information in highly resolved detail, it relies on interpretation by trained readers for the identification of tissue type. We developed a method for quantitative classification of atherosclerotic plaque constituents. The optical attenuation coefficient mu(t) distinguishes different tissue ... (Read Full Article)

  5. Optical coherence tomography assessment of the acute effects of stent implantation on the vessel wall: a systematic quantitative approach

    Explore Article Heart (Nov 18 2009) Cardiology

    Objective: To observe and characterise vessel injury after stenting using optical coherence tomography (OCT), to propose a systematic OCT classification for periprocedural vessel trauma, to evaluate its frequency in stable versus unstable patients and to assess its clinical impact during the hospitalisation period. Setting: Stenting causes vessel injury. Design and interventions: All consecutive patients in whom OCT was performed after stent implantation were included in the study.

  6. Expert review document on methodology, terminology, and clinical applications of optical coherence tomography: physical principles, methodology of image acquisition, and clinical application for assessment of coronary arteries and atherosclerosis

    Explore Article Oxford Journals (Nov 5 2009) Cardiology

    Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a novel intravascular imaging modality, based on infrared light emission, that enables a high resolution arterial wall imaging, in the range of 10–20 microns. This feature of OCT allows the visualization of specific components of the atherosclerotic plaques. The aim of the present Expert Review Document is to address the methodology, terminology and clinical applications of OCT for qualitative and quantitative assessment of coronary arteries ...

  7. An optical coherence tomography study of a biodegradable vs. durable polymer-coated limus-eluting stent: a LEADERS trial sub-study

    Explore Article Oxford Journals (Nov 4 2009) Cardiology

    Aims: Incomplete endothelialization has been found to be associated with late stent thrombosis, a rare but devastating phenomenon, more frequent after drug-eluting stent implantation. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) has 10 times greater resolution than intravascular ultrasound and thus appears to be a valuable modality for the assessment of stent strut coverage. The LEADERS trial was a multi-centre, randomized comparison of a biolimus-eluting stent (BES) with biodegradable polymer with a sirolimus-eluting ... (Read Full Article)

    Invasive coronary imaging techniques have improved our understanding of atherosclerosis and helped us to evaluate the effectiveness of new drugs and new intravascular devices. We have adopted and integrated them rapidly into our clinical decision making process in the catheterisation laboratory. So far, only significant lesions in the coronary angiogram have been treated either by percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) or coronary bypass artery grafting (CABG), while normal looking coronary segments ...

    Objectives and background: Quantitative analysis of intracoronary optical coherence tomography (OCT) image data (QOCT) is currently performed by a time-consuming manual contour tracing process in individual OCT images acquired during a pullback procedure (frame-based method). To get an efficient quantitative analysis process, we developed a fully automatic three-dimensional (3D) lumen contour detection method and evaluated the results against those derived by expert human observers. Methods: The method was developed using ... (Read Full Article)
