Intracoronary ultrasound.
Although contrast angiography is important in the diagnosis and treatment of atherosclerotic disease, it does have limitations. Intracoronary ultrasound more accurately assesses the amount of atherosclerosis and has given us new insights into the pathophysiology of coronary plaque accumulation and remodelling. It also allows the monitoring of therapeutic intervention. Intracoronary ultrasound i...
متن کاملThree - dimensional Reconstruction of Intracoronary Ultrasound
Although intracoronary ultrasonography allows detailed tomographic imaging of the arterial wall, it fails to provide data on the structural architecture and longitudinal extent of arterial disease. This information is essential for decision making during therapeutic interventions. Three-dimensional reconstruction techniques offer visualization of the complex longitudinal architecture of atheros...
متن کاملIntracoronary ultrasound observations during stent implantation.
T he Palmaz-Schatz stent has been used successfully to improve primary angioplasty results, to treat large coronary dissections, or to prevent impending closure of the lumen.-1-5 The determination of successful stent implantation is based on the angiographic appearance. However, angiographic projection imaging may not reveal the three-dimensional geometry that is necessary to appreciate full ex...

متن کاملIntracoronary ultrasound: current state of the art.
For the last 30 years, coronary angiography has been the definitive method of evaluating coronary artery anatomy. The introduction of percutaneous coronary revascularisation and the growing appreciation of the pathophysiological and prognostic importance of arterial wall morphology have led to the realisation that angiography is inherently limited in defining the distribution and extent of coro...
