Optical coherence tomography (OCT)

Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a diagnostic procedure that is used during cardiac catheterization. Unlike ultrasound, which uses sound waves to produce an image of the blood vessels, OCT uses light. With OCT, doctors can obtain images of the blood vessels that are about the same as if they were looking under a microscope. The main applications of the OCT system are: 1. Atherosclerotic plaque assessment 2. Stent struts coverage and apposition assessment, and in stent restenosis evaluation 3. PCI guide and optimisation
