Cardiovascular OCT Imaging: summary, description and annotation

We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "Cardiovascular OCT Imaging" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

This heavily revised second edition comprehensively reviews the use of optical coherence tomography (OCT) in cardiovascular practice. It provides detailed guidance on how to properly interpret OCT images and successfully utilise it in daily clinical practice Chapters cover the development and physics associated with OCT, relevant interpretation skills, OCT imaging artifacts, plaque erosion, bioabsorbable stent, the detection of vulnerable plaque, and the use of OCT imaging in unison with other modalities such as phase contrast imaging (PCI). Areas of potential future development are also covered Cardiovascular OCT Imaging enables interventional cardiologists and cardiologists to quickly become both familiar and develop a detailed understanding of this technology to improve patient care and treatment outcome. It is a valuable reference for all practising and trainee medical professionals in cardiology, and in particular those who specialize in interventional cardiology.

Foreword

Since the first report on OCT over two decades ago, interest in this imaging technology in medicine has exponentially increased, initially in ophthalmology and recently in cardiology. Introduction of this intravascular imaging modality in cardiology coincided with the emergence of a new concept, namely, the detection of vulnerable or high-risk plaque. As vulnerable plaque represents microstructural changes of coronary plaque including thin fibrous cap overlying lipid pool and increased lipid pool, it was thought that this high-resolution imaging modality would be ideal for detecting vulnerable plaques. Indeed, OCT has been proven to be an invaluable tool not only for detecting high-risk plaques but also for studying in vivo vascular biology, particularly in order to understand the pathophysiology of acute coronary syndromes. With a series of OCT studies, our understanding on the pathogenesis of acute coronary syndrome has made remarkable progress and confirmed many findings, which had been possible only in autopsy studies previously. Since OCT can be used in patients repeatedly, in vivo serial studies have been reported, and these studies have provided critical information on the evolution of vascular structure over time and also the vascular response to interventions such as cholesterol-lowering therapy.

In addition to the application of OCT to research, OCT has been increasingly used in interventional cardiology, primarily to optimize percutaneous coronary intervention with stenting. Despite gradual adoption of this technology in cardiac catheterization laboratories, the clinical value of OCT remains undefined. How to maximize the information provided by OCT to optimize percutaneous procedures is not widely known. This book will provide background and practical tips for interventional cardiologists.

Since his first report on in vivo OCT application in 2001, in my view, Dr. Jangs group has been the leader in OCT in cardiology. His group brought this technology from bench to bedside through series of preclinical and clinical studies. They for the first time established the OCT criteria for plaque characterization, reported differences in plaque characteristics in patients with various clinical presentations, and recently published the first in vivo demonstration of plaque erosion, one of the important underlying mechanisms for acute coronary syndromes. In addition, his group published the first paper comparing OCT and intravascular ultrasound after stenting, demonstrating the higher sensitivity of OCT in the detection of stent-related complications.

This textbook covers all the practical aspects of OCT in current research as well as clinical practice. With the rapidly growing interest in OCT, this book is extremely timely and very relevant for all cardiologists interested in vascular biology or interventional cardiology. My warmest congratulations to Dr. Jang and his group for such outstanding contributions to the field of cardiovascular medicine.

1.1 Introduction

Optical coherence tomography (OCT) has become a major optical imaging modality in biomedical optics and medicine. OCT performs high resolution, cross-sectional and three dimensional volumetric and functional imaging of the internal microstructure in biological tissues by measuring backscattered light []. Tissue pathology can be imaged in situ and in real time with resolutions of 115 m, one to two orders of magnitude finer than conventional ultrasound. Imaging can be performed using small fiber-optic probes including catheters and endoscopes. The unique features of OCT make it a powerful imaging modality with applications spanning many clinical specialties as well as fundamental scientific and biological research and many non-medical applications.
