Mapping Intravascular Ultrasound Controversies in Interventional Cardiology Practice
Intravascular ultrasound is a catheter-based imaging modality that was developed to investigate the condition of coronary arteries and assess the vulnerability of coronary atherosclerotic plaques in particular. Since its introduction in the clinic 20 years ago, use of intravascular ultrasound innovation has been relatively limited. Intravascular ultrasound remains a niche technology; its clinic...
متن کاملContemporary Reviews in Interventional Cardiology Advances in Intravascular Imaging
This review updates the role of various intravascular imaging techniques (1) in the detection of vulnerable plaque and (2) during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), especially drug-eluting stent (DES) implantation and follow-up—including intravascular ultrasound (IVUS), virtual histology (VH-IVUS) and integrated backscatter (IBIVUS), optical coherent tomography (OCT), near-infrared (NIR)...
متن کاملCurrent practice Antiplatelet use in interventional cardiology
Thrombosis within the target vessel is one of the most feared complications associated with coronary intervention, as it is often associated with severe adverse clinical sequelae. This thrombosis is mediated via the activation and aggregation of platelets and therefore considerable eVort has been directed at ways of inhibiting platelet function. It is now mandatory to consider the use of two an...
متن کاملINTERVENTIONAL CARDIOLOGY AND SURGERY Findings of intravascular ultrasound during acute stent thrombosis
Objective: To evaluate the potential role of intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) in evaluating patients experiencing an episode of acute stent thrombosis. Design and setting: Prospective observational study in a cardiac catheterisation laboratory in a university teaching hospital. Patients and interventions: IVUS was used to examine 12 patients undergoing coronary interventions for stent thrombosis...
متن کاملNew frontiers in interventional cardiology: intravascular radiation to prevent restenosis.
Any antirestenosis therapy under consideration must contend with the two basic mechanisms of vessel renarrowing following coronary intervention.1 The first renarrowing mechanism is vascular contraction, which can be mechanically blocked with a typical balloon expandable stent. The second renarrowing mechanism, neointimal proliferation, is a complex cellular reaction to the injury caused by the ...
