Virtual Histology Intravascular Ultrasound Compared With Optical Coherence Tomography for Identification of Thin-Cap Fibroatheroma
Takashi Kubo,Nobuo Nakamura,Yoshiki Matsuo,Yasushi Okumoto,Xiaofan Wu,So-Yeon Choi,Kenichi Komukai,Takashi Tanimoto,Yasushi Ino,Hironori Kitabata,Keizo Kimura,Masato Mizukoshi,Toshio Imanishi,Hideharu Akagi,Tadao Yamamoto,Takashi Akasaka +15 more
TL;DR: A potential role for VH-IVUS to exclude high risk lesions for future coronary events is suggested, as it showed an acceptable sensitivity and specificity to identify TCFA as determined by OCT.
