  • Title: Application of optical coherence tomography in the treatment of coronary bifurcation lesions.
    Author: Pidlaoan V, Banerjee S, Brilakis ES.
    Journal: J Invasive Cardiol; 2012 Feb; 24(2):E39-42. PubMed ID: 22294547.
    Abstract:
    Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a novel intravascular imaging modality with excellent resolution. We report the application of OCT in 3 coronary bifurcation interventions, in which OCT allowed optimization of the final procedural result, by detecting a dissection, intracoronary thrombus and by confirming complete ostial coverage by a stent.
