Association Between Aortic Wall Parameters on Multidetector Computed Tomography and Ruptured Plaques By Nonobstructive General Angioscopy [PDF]
Background Nonobstructive general angioscopy (NOGA) can identify vulnerable plaques in the aortic lumen that serve as potential risk factors for cardiovascular events such as embolism.

A Parametric Study of Flushing Conditions for Improvement of Angioscopy Visibility
During an angioscopy operation, a transparent liquid called dextran is sprayed out from a catheter to flush the blood away from the space between the camera and target. Medical doctors usually inject dextran at a constant flow rate.

Efficacy of Angioscopy for the Detection of Mobile Carotid Artery Lesions [PDF]
Case presentation A 78‐year‐old man with a mobile lesion was diagnosed with thrombus using carotid ultrasonography, but the lesion was not completely resolved with dual antiplatelet and anticoagulation therapy. Direct visualization by angioscopy showed a

Safety and feasibility of dual antiplatelet therapy termination guided by angioscopic findings 6 months after flow diverter placement [PDF]
BackgroundFlow diverters (FDs) are commonly used to treat intracranial aneurysms with wide necks. Dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) is essential during the perioperative period to prevent thrombosis; however, it increases the risk of hemorrhagic ...

Optimal Dual Antiplatelet Therapy Duration For Carotid Artery Stenting On the Basis of Angioscopic Findings [PDF]
Background Dual antiplatelet therapy plays a crucial role in preventing thrombosis in the perioperative period of carotid artery stenting (CAS); however, it has been associated with a risk of hemorrhagic complications. A standard regimen for the duration

Clarification of embolic source in ischaemic stroke by non-obstructive general angioscopy [PDF]
Background Aortogenic stroke is an important subtype of embolic strokes, yet lacks a diagnostic method for proactive identification. Non-obstructive general angioscopy (NOGA) is a catheter-based technique to observe spontaneously ruptured aortic plaques (
