      Predictors of Irregular Protrusion After Everolimus-Eluting Stent Implantation in Patients with Stable Coronary Artery Disease
      This study aimed to investigate clinical and preintervention optical coherence tomography (OCT) findings to predict irregular protrusion (IRP) immediately after stent implantation. We evaluated 84 lesions treated with cobalt-chromium everolimus-eluting stent (CoCr-EES) from the MECHANISM Elective study. Patients were divided into two groups according to the presence of IRP [IRP: n = 16, non-IRP: n = 68]. Optical coherence tomography images before intervention and immediately after stenting were evaluated with standard qualitative ...

      Feasibility of morphological assessment of coronary artery calcification with electrocardiography-gated non-contrast computed tomography: a comparative study with optical coherence tomography
      To investigate the feasibility of pre-procedural morphological assessment of coronary artery calcification in severely calcified lesions with electrocardiography (ECG)-gated non-contrast computed tomography (CT). Severely calcified coronary arteries in patients who underwent ECG-gated non-contrast CT prior to optical coherence tomography (OCT)-guided percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) were studied retrospectively. CT and OCT data were co-registered by marking landmark structures such as side branches and reviewed side by side with cross-sectional ...

      To compare early vascular healing following cobalt-chromium everolimus-eluting stent (CoCr-EES) implantation between groups with or without aggressive stent expansion in patients treated by CoCr-EES for stable coronary artery disease (CAD). Seventy-one stable CAD lesions underwent CoCr-EES implantation and analysis of serial optical coherence tomography (OCT) images obtained post-procedure and at early-term (1- or 3-month) follow-up. The endpoints of this study were neointimal thickness at the time of 1- or 3-month ...

      Efficacy of coronary imaging on bifurcation intervention
      During the coronary bifurcation intervention procedure, imaging including intravascular ultrasound and optical coherence tomography is essential to provide precise anatomy of the lesion and morphological information. This consensus document between the Korean Bifurcation Club and the Japanese Bifurcation Club summarizes practical guidelines and current evidences on lesion assessment, device selection, procedural guidance, and the optimization of bifurcation intervention by the imaging.

      Bandwidth enhancement in an InGaN/GaN three-section superluminescent diode for optical coherence tomography
      In this paper, the optoelectronic properties of InGaN-based blue (430nm) superluminescent light-emitting diodes with a multi-section, three contact design are reported. The bias conditions of the rear absorber section and gain sections are explored in terms of enhancing and maximizing spectral bandwidth. We demonstrate that broader emission can be obtained with a short circuit, rather than an open circuit absorber section, and with two active regions at different current densities ...

      Cut-off value of strut-vessel distance for the resolution of acute incomplete stent apposition in the early phase using serial optical coherence tomography after cobalt-chromium everolimus-eluting stent implantation
      Objective The purpose of this study was to identify a cut-off value to predict the resolution of incomplete-stent-apposition (ISA) after cobalt-chromium everolimus-eluting stent (CoCr-EES) implantation at early follow-up. Background To date, appropriate stent apposition at the acute period using intracoronary imaging has been recommended because persistent ISA is considered to be a risk factor for stent thrombosis.

      Efficacy of optical frequency-domain imaging in detecting peripheral artery disease: a single-center open-label, single-arm study protocol
      Intravascular optical coherence tomography is a high-resolution intracoronary imaging modality, providing a microscopic image of intravascular features. However, it has lower penetration depth than intravascular ultrasound. Recently, a second-generation optical frequency-domain imaging (OFDI) technique has been developed to provide greater penetration depth and faster pullback speed. However, there is little evidence supporting the efficacy of OFDI in patients with peripheral artery disease (PAD) undergoing endovascular treatment (EVT). We aimed to ...
