Coronary Imaging (Intravascular Imaging)
A technique used during angioplasty to get clear, inside views of heart arteries, helping doctors treat blockages more accurately.

 

IVUS (Intravascular Ultrasound):
Uses sound waves to create live images of the artery wall. Helps assess plaque, artery size, and stent placement.

 

OCT (Optical Coherence Tomography):
Uses light waves to give high-definition images inside the artery. Helps detect clots, cracks, and ensure perfect stent fit.

 

Both help make angioplasty safer, precise, and improves long-term outcomes.
