About
The aim of this study is to assess clinical safety and efficacy of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) using a newer generation drug-eluting stent (DES) in the context of optical frequency domain imaging (OFDI) guidance or intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) guidance.
Full description
Intracoronary imaging techniques provide clinically useful information in the setting of PCI, such as lesion severity, tissue characterization, vessel sizing, and stent optimization. Current evidences suggest potential advantage of intracoronary imaging guidance in reducing the risk of major adverse cardiac events after stent implantation over conventional PCI under angiographic guidance alone. IVUS has been clinically used in two decades and it is known as one of the most dominant intracoronary imaging technique. OFDI is a new light-based intracoronary imaging technology which provides higher image resolution and higher-speed pullback compared to those of IVUS. Given the different properties between ultrasound-based IVUS and light-based OFDI, treatment and clinical impact of these two imaging techniques would be different.
