Abstract:
Accurate diagnosis of stenosis degree,disease nature,and disease extent play a key role in treating coronary artery stenosis by using coronary artery stent implantation.The optimal scheme for coronary artery stent implantation would decrease the restenosis rate and elevate therapeutic efficacy following stent implantation.Intravascular unltrasound can real-time display the stenosis degree,intravascular plaque and mucosa pathological changes accurately,in addition,it can represent the expansion and supporting status of stent.It demonstrated that application of intravascular unltrasound exhibit superior ability to display blood vessel pathological changes than coronary arteriongraphy,which plays a vital role in guiding stent selection,evaluating stent releasing,as well as preventing blood vessel from restenosis.
