English
Authors' objectives:
Intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) is an imaging technique that uses a tiny ultrasound transducer to obtain detailed views of the lumen and wall of a coronary vessel. IVUS has been investigated for imaging of coronary vessels pre-operatively for guidance of procedures, such as angioplasty, insertion of coronary stents, and for monitoring response to treatments.
