Author(s): Gregg Stone Added: 2 years ago
ESC 2023 — Dr Gregg Stone (Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, US) shares the findings from a real-time updated network meta-analysis comparing OCT, IVUS and Angiography guidance in percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) procedures. The OCTOBER and ILUMIEN IV randomised trials both studied OCT-guided versus angiography-guided PCI. This analysis compared the overall effects of… View more

An artificial intelligence (AI) algorithm can identify high-risk coronary plaques on optical coherence tomography (OCT) images and predict adverse outcomes, according to findings from the PECTUS-AI study.¹ The research suggests that AI-assisted analysis of the entire imaged vessel provides superior prognostic value compared to manual analysis of a target lesion alone.Coronary thin-cap… View more

ESC Congress 24 — OCCUPI trial finds OCT-guided PCI more effective than angiography-guided PCI in reducing heart-related events.We are joined onsite at ESC 24 by Dr Kim Byeoung-Keuk (Yonsei University College of Medicine, Seoul, SK) to discuss the results of the OCCUPI trial (NCT03625908), which aims to evaluate the clinical benefits of optical coherence tomography (OCT)-guided percutaneous… View more

ESC 2023 — Dr Ziad Ali (DeMatteis St Francis, US) joins us to discuss the findings from the ILUMIEN IV clinical trial (NCT03507777). ILUMIEN IV (Abbott Medical Devices)is a prospective, single-blind clinical trial aiming to compare optical coherence tomography (OCT) to an angiography-guided stent implantation strategy. The trial investigated which method achieved a larger post-percutaneous… View more

ESC 2023 — Dr Niels Ramsing Holm (Aarhus University, DK) outlines the findings from the OCTOBER trial (NCT03171311). The OCTOBER trial (Aarhus University Hospital Skejby, Abbott) aimed to compare the median two-year clinical outcome after optical coherence tomography (OCT) guided percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) as compared to angiographic-guided PCI. This was an investigator-initiated… View more

ESC 2023 — We are joined onsite by Dr Duk-Woo Park and Dr Do-Yoon Kang (Asan Medical Center, Seoul, KR) to discuss the findings from the OCTIVUS study (NCT03394079). The OCTIVUS study (Seung-Jung Park, CardioVascular Research Foundation, Korea) aims to compare the clinical safety and efficacy of optimal coherence tomography (OCT) guided and intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) guided strategies in… View more

AUTHOR: Sean DelaneyA greater number of traditional cardiovascular risk factors is strongly associated with increased coronary plaque vulnerability in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS), particularly in culprit lesions, according to a new analysis published in JACC.¹ The study provides a direct morphological link between the cumulative burden of risk factors and the high-risk plaque… View more

AUTHOR: Ola WisniewskaA novel optical coherence tomography (OCT)-based physiological assessment, virtual flow reserve (VFR), has been shown to predict 2-year clinical outcomes following percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), independent of anatomical measures like minimal stent area (MSA). This finding comes from a new substudy of the ILUMIEN IV trial, highlighting the potential of VFR to… View more
