Clinical Perspectives of Intravascular Ultrasound

Echocardiography, 1990
The history of intravascular ultrasound imaging, recent developments in catheter technology, and the initial in vivo experience are reviewed. Additionally, the article also discusses the potential applications of intravascular ultrasound imaging in coronary and peripheral arterial atherosclerosis, hypertension, pulmonary arterial disorders, valvular ...

Intravascular ultrasound in interventional radiology

European Radiology, 2000
Intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) imaging provides useful additional information to X-ray angiography in selected cases of balloon angioplasty and stent placement with complex vascular anatomy and unclear findings at angiography. It facilitates accurate measurements of the vessel dimensions and reveals the extent of the disease for the selection of ...

Intravascular Ultrasound in Carotid Web

Journal of NeuroInterventional Surgery, 2019
BackgroundCarotid web (CaW) is a shelf-like linear filling defect in the posterior aspect of the internal carotid bulb, representing an intimal variant of fibromuscular dysplasia. The diagnosis of CaW is traditionally restricted to digital subtraction angiography (DSA), CT/MR angiography (CTA/MRA), and Duplex ultrasonography. In this series of patients

Intravascular Ultrasound Imaging

Archives of Surgery, 1994
Intravascular Ultrasound Imaging contains a clear overview of the basics of intravascular ultrasound physics with helpful details to avoid problems when starting out with this imaging modality. The authors present how-to techniques and discuss the advantages and pitfalls of three-dimensional reconstruction and its future applications.

Intravascular ultrasound assessment of atherosclerosis

Current Atherosclerosis Reports, 2004
Atherosclerosis imaging has taken on increasing importance in the understanding of the natural history of coronary artery disease and the processes leading to luminal narrowing, as well as the assessment of disease burden and therapy efficacy. Intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) has emerged as the new gold standard for atherosclerosis imaging because it ...

Intravascular ultrasound and photoacoustic imaging

2008 30th Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society, 2008
There is a need for an imaging technique that can reliably identify and characterize the vulnerability of atherosclerotic plaques. Catheter-based intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) is one of the imaging tools of the clinical evaluation of atherosclerosis. However, histopathological information obtained with IVUS imaging is limited.

Intravascular Ultrasound in the Coronary Arteries

Seminars in Vascular Surgery, 2006
With technical improvements in catheter designs, intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) imaging of coronary arteries has become a routine procedure in most cardiac catheterization laboratories. In clinical practice, IVUS imaging of the coronary arteries is commonly performed to answer specific clinical questions such as the evaluation of an indeterminate ...

Coronary angiography and intravascular ultrasound

The American Journal of Cardiology, 2001
Clinicians have long used the size of the lumen and the angiogram as a predictor of coronary events. However, cardiovascular disease is not a disease of the lumen but a disease of the vessel wall. In early stages, atherosclerosis outwardly remodels the external elastic membrane; only late in the disease process does luminal narrowing occur, enabling ...

Angiography and Intravascular Ultrasound

2010
Coronary atherosclerosis, or coronary artery disease, is a widespread, chronic and usually progressive disease that affects men at an earlier age than women. There are, for example, more than 7 million Americans with diagnosed coronary artery disease [1].
