To treat stenosis, percutaneous intervention (PCI) (a nonsurgical procedure install stent, holds wall open) performed. Intracoronary optical coherence tomography (OCT) catheter-based, invasive imaging system. determine whether PCI appropriate, perform stent evaluation in catheterization laboratory, OCT examinations are carried out. This review details fundamental principles technological status intracoronary imaging, discusses ongoing clinical applications benefits OCT-guided PCI.
