Abstract:
Intracoronary ultrasound(ICUS) was successfully applied in 32 patients who accepted directional coronary atherectomy(DCA). After the procedure, the mean internal diameter of coronary artery increased from 1.06 mm to 3.59 mm, and the residual stenosis was < 25%. No severe complications, such as rupture of perforation, occurred. The clinical application of ICUS in DCA may improve the therapeutic effects as well as success rate of DCA, and may minimize the incidence of complications.
