Virtual histological reconstruction by intravascular ultrasound (VH-IVUS) is a validated technique that allows us to determine the histological composition of coronary atherosclerotic plaque.1 Fibrous ...
IVUS (iMap™ IVUS Tissue Characterization [Boston Scientific Corp., MN, USA]) and virtual histology (VH)-IVUS (Eagle Eye™, Volcano Therapeutics Inc., CA, USA). Both methods were designed to ...
Introduction Previous work has shown that plaque composition in stented vessels determined by virtual histology intravascular ultrasound (VH-IVUS) predicts myocardial necrosis after percutaneous ...
SyncVision’s Co-registration measures accurate length even with a manual pullback. VH IVUS imaging provides a colorized tissue map of plaque composition with automated lumen and vessel measurements.
Background Prospective VH-IVUS studies indicate that <10% higher-risk plaques cause clinical events over 3 years, indicating that other factors also determine plaque rupture. Plaque rupture is ...
