IVUS or Intravascular ultrasound is a diagnostic procedure done with the help of a catheter to view the inside of a coronary artery and serve a real-time view. An IVUS procedure shows the extent of thickening or narrowing of an artery by providing the image of the inside of an artery and the atheroma hidden within the artery wall. IVUS is used to image the lining or artery for preparing or reviewing an angioplasty, atherectomy or placement of stents.
OCT or optical coherence topography is a diagnostic procedure used during cardiac catheterization. It is used by doctors to obtain images of the blood vessels that are not usually detected or visible. It used near-infrared light to create inside images of the coronary arteries. This technique delivers high-resolution images allowing doctors to make better decisions and treatment plans.
In FFR or Fractional Flow Reserve measurement, the ratio between the maximum achievable blood flow in a coronary artery with a problem and the theoretical maximum flow in a normal coronary artery is determined. FFR measurement can be done easily during a routine coronary angiography with the use of a pressure wire to calculate the ratio. This ratio indicates the potential decrease in the coronary flow distal to the coronary stenosis.
