| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The stability of atherosclerotic plaques is related to histological composition and the thickness of fibrous caps. Therefore, recognition of the tissue characteristics of coronary plaques is important to understand and prevent acute coronary syndrome. Within the penetration depth of optical coherence tomography (OCT), a, OCT has a best potential for tissue characterization of coronary plaques. Integrated backscatter intravascular ultrasound (IB-IVUS) has a better potential for characterizing coronary plaque. One of the aims of the present study was to combine two techniques. However, the combination was impossible because OCT catheters were changed from wire type to catheter type. Palpography came to be possible using off-line techniques.
