2. Safety and Usefulness of Non-Occlusion Image Acquisition Technique for Optical Coherence Tomography

   jstage.jst.go.jp (Sep 1 2008) Cardiology Explore Article

   Background Because optical coherence tomography (OCT) requires balloon-occlusion to overcome image attenuation by blood, the present study investigated the safety and usefulness of a new non-occlusive technique. Methods and Results The 40 angina patients were assigned to the continuous-flushing method or the balloon-occlusion method group. The continuous-flushing method was superior for observing proximal lesions compared with the balloon-occlusion method (94% vs 55%, p=0.01). There were no differences between groups in ...

4. In-vivo characterisation of coronary atherosclerosis with optical coherence tomography

   mja.com.au (Jun 16 2008) Cardiology Explore Article

   The burden of atherosclerosis has triggered intense interest in the study of “vulnerable” plaques at high risk of rupture. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) has recently contributed to the in-vivo visualisation of plaque, providing unique insights into the atherosclerotic process, previously only attainable through postmortem examination. This technique uses near infrared light and an optical imaging wire attached to a patient interface unit with a pullback speed of up to 3.0 ... (Read Full Article)

5. Optical Coherence Tomography for Drug Eluting Stent Safety (ODESSA)

   Home - ClinicalTrials.gov (Jun 8 2008) Cardiology Explore Article

   Increasing lesion complexity in percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI) has warranted the use of overlapping drug-eluting stents. Whether the substantial impairment of arterial healing observed at sites of overlap in preclinical pathologic studies persists in patients undergoing PCI is unknown. Consecutive patients with long lesions in native coronary vessels requiring stents in overlap are prospectively randomized to receive multiple sirolimus-,paclitaxel polymer-or zotarolimus eluting stents (Read Full Article)

8. From Bench to Bedside - A Novel Technique of Acquiring OCT Images

   jstage.jst.go.jp (Apr 29 2008) Cardiology Explore Article

   Background Optical coherence tomography (OCT), a high resolution intravascular imaging technique, requires blood displacement for reliable image acquisition and the current technique uses a soft occlusion balloon plus saline injection in the coronary artery. A non-occlusive technique based on manual infusion of a viscous iso-osmolar solution has been developed and tested and validated through a 2-phase study. Methods and Results OCT assessment was performed with the M2 LightLab OCT (LightLab ... (Read Full Article)

10. Safety and Feasibility of an Intravascular Optical Coherence Tomography Image Wire System in the Clinical Setting

    ScienceDirect (Jan 11 2008) Cardiology Explore Article

    Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a fiber-optic technology that enables high-resolution intracoronary imaging. The aim of this study was to evaluate the safety and feasibility of intracoronary imaging with OCT in the clinical setting; 76 patients with coronary artery disease from 8 centers were enrolled. The OCT imaging system (ImageWire, Light Imaging Inc., Westford, Massachusetts) consists of a 0.006 inch fiber-optic core that rotates within a 0.016 inch transparent sheath. ...
