Multimodality Optical and Ultrasound Intravascular Imaging for Stent Optimization and Atheroma Assessment

Patients for a coronary angiogram who meet the inclusion criteria and none of the exclusion criteria are enrolled. Participants are prepared for angiography and PCI procedure in the usual way. Radial or femoral artery cannulation is done under local anaesthetic and the angiogram performed as per standard practice. IVUS-OCT imaging of the culprit vessel using the Novasight Hybrid system is then performed. If image quality of the IVUS-OCT is suboptimal it will be repeated. If the IVUS-OCT catheter cannot cross the lesion, pre-dilatation is performed. The acquired IVUS-OCT images can be used to optimise PCI. Following PCI, angiography is repeated and if the findings are optimal, IVUS-OCT imaging is repeated. If the PCI results are suboptimal further stent optimisation is performed and IVUS-OCT imaging repeated; The procedure is then completed as clinically indicated. The participant will then receive conventional post PCI care
