Precision percutaneous coronary intervention: Is optical coherence tomography co-registration the future?
Evan ShlofmitzAllen JeremiasPublished in: Catheterization and cardiovascular interventions : official journal of the Society for Cardiac Angiography & Interventions (2019)
Integration of angiographic co-registration (ACR) with optical coherence tomography (OCT) leads to significant changes in PCI strategy. ACR with OCT allows complete integration of all available data-points to aid decision making. Randomized clinical trials comprehensively evaluating the impact of OCT with ACR to improve clinical outcomes are ongoing.
