Novel evaluation method using 3D OCT for safety of drug eluting stent

我们已经开发了一种新的方法来评估使用三维光学相干断层扫描的组织覆盖。与标准定量分析结果具有良好的相关性。通过该方法评价了biolimus和evarolimus洗脱支架后的组织覆盖，在1年随访时显示组织覆盖良好。此外，据报道，富含脂质的斑块和薄纤维帽与急性冠状动脉综合征和支架相关事件的发生有关。我们开发了一种新的软件，可以在三维血管模型上显示这种易损斑块，以便于了解其位置。

We have developed a novel method to evaluate the tissue coverage using 3-dimensional optical coherence tomography. It had a good correlation to the standard quantitative analysis. The tissue coverage after biolimus- and evarolimus-eluting stent were evaluated by this method and good tissue coverage was revealed at 1-year follow-up. Furthermore, it has been reported that a lipid rich plaque with thin-fibrous cap related to occurrence of acute coronary syndrome and stent-related events. We have developed novel software which demonstrates such vulnerable plaque on 3-dimensional vessel model to facilitate understanding its location.
