Journal ArticleDOI
An accidentally crushed stent identified by optical coherence tomography.
TL;DR: This report summarizes a case of an undersized and crushed stent diagnosed by OCT, which was not apparent on coronary angiogram, and the OCT findings were crucial in the management of this patient.
Journal ArticleDOI
Long term spontaneous evolution of left ventricular function after experimental acute coronary occlusion.
TL;DR: Global and regional left ventricular function were significantly depressed immediately after occlusion and showed no significant recovery after one and three weeks, except for a decrease in the paradoxical motion of the LAD territory, which was probably due to stiffening of the infarct area.
Journal ArticleDOI
CRT-107 Geometrically Accurate Three-Dimensional Coronary Artery Reconstruction Using Frequency-Domain Optical Coherence Tomography and Angiographic Data: New Opportunities for In Vivo Endothelial Shear Stress Assessment

TL;DR: Three-dimensional coronary artery reconstruction using intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) and angiographic data has been used in studies highlighting the critical role of endothelial shear stress (ESS) in coronary atherosclerosis.
Journal ArticleDOI
TCT-652 Longitudinal Distribution of Endothelial Shear Stress Along Culprit Lesions and Association with Plaque Characteristics in Patients with Acute Coronary Syndromes: A Three-Dimensional Frequency-Domain Optical Coherence Tomography Study
Michail I. Papafaklis,Rocco Vergallo,Haibo Jia,Christos V. Bourantas,Taishi Yonetsu,Lampros Lakkas,Iris McNulty,Anna Kotsia,Hang Lee,Antonios P. Antoniadis,Bo Yu,Katerina K. Naka,Dimitrios I. Fotiadis,Charles L. Feldman,Lampros K. Michalis,Ik-Kyung Jang,Peter Stone +16 more
TL;DR: Endothelial shear stress is a major determinant of vascular pathology and plaque rupture/thrombosis is the most prominent mechanism leading to acute coronary syndromes (ACS).
Journal ArticleDOI
Correlation of vasa vasorum and plaque progression and response to atorvastatin therapy an a rabbit model of atherosclerosis: in vivo intravascular ultrasound and contrast-enhanced ultrasound imaging study
TL;DR: Serial in vivo data on the relationship between vasa vasorum proliferation and plaque progression, and the effects of atorvastatin on these structural changes are limited.
