- dariemihaela - (Nov 9 2009) Dear Prof. Dr. Gary S. Mintz, You are an extraordinary expert in imaging, an intelligence applied critically at the right moment by a tremendous knowledge acquired in many scientific fields associated with a great grace in action at any step surrounding. Few years ago you anticipated the important role of CTO in intravascular imagines and presently you proved it by this article, and not only. At TCT 2009 you demonstrated ...

Unhealed Plaque Ruptures After Stenting in Acute Myocardial Infarction Assessed by Intracoronary Optical Coherence Tomography: Incidence, Predictors, and Clinical Implication
Explore Article Circulation (Nov 14 2009) Cardiology
Backgrounds: Non healing after stenting a ruptured thin capped fibroatheroma in acute myocardial infarction (AMI) has been suggested to be a possible cause of late stent thrombosis. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) provides detailed information of ruptured plaques and stent strut coverage. We used OCT to assess the incidence, predictors, and implications of residual plaque rupture after stenting in AMI. Methods: The HORIZONS-AMI trial was a prospective, multicenter, dual arm factorial ... (Read Full Article)

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 ...
