Advanced imaging

Angiography alone is not enough in PCI

Angiography provides information on luminal characteristics of vessels, but does not provide a clear picture of the vessel and disease.

However, with IVUS guidance you can see more clearly and improve patient outcomes with informed pre-stent planning and post-stent optimization.¹

74%

of the time, IVUS use resulted in a change in PCI strategy^2,3,4,5

46%

Reduction in TVF at 1 year when IVUS was used^6,7

43%

Lower risk of cardiac death associated with IVUS⁸

See clearly and treat optimally with IVUS in a variety of clinical scenarios

Diffuse disease

Ambiguous angio

Left main

IVUS is an AHA/ACC/SCAI Class IIa recommendation for the assessment of angiographically indeterminant left main CAD.⁹

IVUS may help to determine:

• Lesion significance

• Vessel sizing

• Optimal stent deployment

Learn about the other clinical scenarios benefited with IVUS

Ostial and bifurcation lesions

IVUS guidance reduced long-term all-cause mortality by 76%.¹⁰

IVUS may help to determine:

• Location of the true ostium to decrease risk of geographic miss

• Plaque distribution

• Whether two stents are needed

• Lesion length

• Landing zones

• Whether post-dilation is needed (especially at the proximal stent)

Learn about the other clinical scenarios benefited with IVUS

Diffuse disease

Using IVUS for long lesions (stents ≥ 28mm) was associated with a 52% reduction in

MACE at 1 year in the IVUS-XPL randomized control trial.¹¹

IVUS may help to determine:

• Vessel size and length of disease

• Positive remodeling

• Plaque burden

• Stenosis

Learn about the other clinical scenarios benefited with IVUS

Repeat patients

IVUS is an AHA/ACC/SCAI Class IIa recommendation to determine the mechanism of stent restenosis.⁹

IVUS may help to determine:

• Extent and mechanism of restenosis for optimal treatment strategy and for the decrease of risk of geographic miss

• Location and amount of thrombus

Learn about the other clinical scenarios benefited with IVUS

Ambiguous angiogram

IVUS guidance was associated with less contrast: 20 ml vs. 64.5 ml, p<.001, n=83 patients randomized to IVUS or angiographyguided PCI.¹²

IVUS may help to determine:

• Pathology at the ambiguous site to optimize your treatment strategy

• Device utilization without additional radiation and contrast
