Honeycomb or Lotus Root-Like Intracoronary Pattern: Insights From Optical Coherence Tomography of a Recanalized Thrombus. [PDF]
Catheter Cardiovasc IntervABSTRACT Spontaneous recanalized coronary thrombus (SRCT) has been identified in autopsy studies as multiple interconnected channels separated by thin septa. Despite its potential clinical significance, SRCT remains underdiagnosed. Recent advances in intracoronary imaging, including optical coherence tomography (OCT), have elucidated its ...

Use of Optical Coherence Tomography in Dentistry
International Journal of Dentistry, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023 Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is an optics‐based imaging technique, which may be called an “optical biopsy.” It can be used to acquire structural information about a tissue at a resolution comparable to histopathology. OCT is based on the principle of low‐coherence interferometry where near‐infrared (NIR) light is shown on a tissue sample and then

Exploiting molecular probes to perform near‐infrared fluorescence‐guided surgery
VIEW, Volume 1, Issue 4, December 2020., 2020 Near‐infrared (NIR) fluorescence imaging can provide real‐time navigation for surgeons to discriminate boundaries between lesions and healthy tissue, which serves as a promising tool to enhance precise diagnosis and accurate excision during surgery. Although a great quantity of fluorescent probes has been employed in clinical trials, the U.S.

Optical imaging techniques for vulnerable plaque detection
Translational Biophotonics, Volume 2, Issue 3, August 2020., 2020 Vulnerable plaque rupture is the most important cause of myocardial infarction and acute coronary syndrome. Therefore, identifying vulnerable plaques is of prime importance, which will in turn aid in the development of treatments to stabilise them. This review article gives a brief understanding about the current optical imaging techniques used to ...

Neoatherosclerosis after Drug‐Eluting Stent Implantation: Roles and Mechanisms
Oxidative Medicine and Cellular Longevity, Volume 2016, Issue 1, 2016., 2016 In‐stent neoatherosclerosis (NA), characterized by a relatively thin fibrous cap and large volume of yellow‐lipid accumulation after drug‐eluting stents (DES) implantation, has attracted much attention owing to its close relationship with late complications, such as revascularization and late stent thrombosis (ST).

Mediators of Inflammation, Volume 2014, Issue 1, 2014., 2014 Introduction. The purpose of this study was to investigate the changes of chitinase 3‐like 1 (CHI3L1) in the aorta of patients with coronary atherosclerosis and to determine whether inhibition of CHI3L1 by lentivirus‐mediated RNA interference could stabilize atherosclerotic plaques in apolipoprotein E‐knockout (ApoE−/−) mice. Methods.

Pathological Perspective of Drug‐Eluting Stent Thrombosis
Thrombosis, Volume 2012, Issue 1, 2012., 2012 Although very late stent thrombosis (VLST) after drug‐eluting stent (DES) implantation remains a major concern, the precise mechanisms have not been clarified. An association between late acquired incomplete stent apposition (ISA) and VLST of DES has been suggested by several intravascular ultrasound studies demonstrating very high prevalence of ISA in

Confocal Endomicroscopy of Colorectal Polyps
Gastroenterology Research and Practice, Volume 2012, Issue 1, 2012., 2012 Confocal laser endomicroscopy (CLE) is one of several novel methods that provide real‐time, high‐resolution imaging at a micron scale via endoscopes. CLE has the potential to be a disruptive technology in that it can change the current algorithms that depend on biopsy to perform surveillance of high‐risk conditions.

Optical Coherence Tomography Imaging in Acute Coronary Syndromes
Cardiology Research and Practice, Volume 2011, Issue 1, 2011., 2011 Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a high‐resolution imaging technique that offers microscopic visualization of coronary plaques. The clear and detailed images of OCT generate an intense interest in adopting this technique for both clinical and research purposes.

Evaluation of Annuloaortic Ectasia by Angioscopy and IVUS “Report of 2 cases”
Diagnostic and Therapeutic Endoscopy, Volume 7, Issue 1, Page 35-45, 2000., 2000 We attempted combined use of angioscopy and intravascular ultrasonography (IVUS) to localize the coronary ostia and determine the aortic segment to be replaced in patients with annuloaortic ectasia, because these preoperative informations are important for selection of an appropriate technique for reconstructing the coronary artery, to prevent ...
