Abstract:
Optical coherence tomography (OCT)is thought to be the most effective tool for recognizing form of vul-nerable plaques and evaluating endothelium coverage after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI)so far.OCT can be used to guide stent implantation,evaluate endothelium proliferation status in stent,explore causes for in-stent restenosis and detect stent late malapposition and in-stent thrombosis etc.
