    Explore Article International Journal of Cardiology (May 13 2010)

    Relation between plaque type and dissections at the edges after stent implantation: An optical coherence tomography study Abstract: Background: Stent implantation can create vessel damage such as edge dissections. The objectives were i) to evaluate the frequency of edge dissections after stenting visible by intracoronary optical coherence tomography (OCT) in comparison with angiography. ii) to assess with OCT the plaque type left at the stent edges after implantation, and iii) to study whether there is an association between plaque type and dissections at stent edges.Methods: Seventy-three consecutive ...

  5. Combined optical coherence tomography and intravascular ultrasound radio frequency data analysis for plaque characterization. Classification accuracy of human coronary plaques in vitro

    Explore Article SpringerLink Home (Apr 15 2010)

    Combined optical coherence tomography and intravascular ultrasound radio frequency data analysis for plaque characterization. Classification accuracy of human coronary plaques in vitro This study was performed to characterize coronary plaque types by optical coherence tomography (OCT) and intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) radiofrequency (RF) data analysis, and to investigate the possibility of error reduction by combining these techniques. Intracoronary imaging methods have greatly enhanced the diagnostic capabilities for the detection of high-risk atherosclerotic plaques. IVUS RF data analysis and OCT are two techniques focusing on plaque morphology and composition. Regions of interest were selected ... (Read Full Article)

  8. Imaging atherosclerotic plaque composition with intracoronary optical coherence tomography

    Explore Article Netherlands Heart Journal (Dec 2 2009)

    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)

    Explore Article Oxford Journals (Nov 5 2009)

    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 ...

  10. 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)

    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 ...
