Research Abstract |
Automatic detection of stent struts with thick neointimal growth in intravascular optical coherence tomography image sequences has been developed anddescribed in a literature, and it is now applicable for three-dimensional reconstruction of coronary artery images in newly developed frequency-domain OCT system, althoughspectroscopic analysis system of coronary plaques are still under -developing at the moment. Identification of vulnerable plaques by characteristics of gray-scale OCT images have been reported in many literatures, and further investigation using spectroscopic analysis would be performed in the near future after completely developing the spectroscopy analysis in newly developed frequency-domain OCT system.
