    Flexible fiber-optic angioscopy shows promise for cardiovascular imaging, offering a visual alternative to contrast angiography in various vascular applications. This vascular endoscopy technique has been successfully demonstrated in preclinical and clinical settings.

    Area of Science:

    • Cardiovascular medicine
    • Medical technology
    • Minimally invasive procedures

    Background:

    • Advances in miniaturization are driving new cardiovascular applications for flexible fiber-optic technology.
    • Angioscopy, a form of vascular endoscopy, is emerging as a potential diagnostic tool.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the feasibility and potential clinical utility of angioscopy in cardiovascular imaging.
    • To demonstrate the application of angioscopy in both preclinical models and human patients.

    Main Methods:

    • Angioscopy was performed in cadaveric aortas, canine systemic and pulmonary circulations, and selected human patients.
    • Percutaneous techniques were developed and utilized for clinical trials.
    • Applications included lower-extremity venoscopy and aortic-root arterioscopy.

    Main Results:

    • Successful angioscopy was achieved in various vascular beds, including the aorta, and systemic and pulmonary circulations.
    • Percutaneous angioscopy was demonstrated in clinical settings.
    • The technique offers a visual alternative for patients with contraindications to contrast agents.

    Conclusions:

    • Flexible fiber-optic angioscopy is a viable technique for cardiovascular visualization.
    • Angioscopy presents potential advantages over conventional angiography, including 3D color visualization and utility in contrast-allergic patients.
    • Further clinical trials are warranted to establish its role in routine practice.
