Abstract

Optical coherence tomography (OCT), as intravascular ultrasound did in earlier days, has been changing the way we see coronary artery disease. This chapter will address emerging OCT-based technologies that will fascilitate a better understanding of the coronary anatomy and pathophysiology: three-dimensional OCT and multimodal biological imaging integrated with OCT.
