The correlation between cardiac computed tomographic (CT) and intravascular ultrasound
(IVUS) assessment of saphenous vein graft (SVG) lesions has not been studied. The aim of …

BACKGROUND: Little is known about intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) findings and acute
post-percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) outcome and long-term clinical outcome …

Larger final lumen dimensions after percutaneous coronary interventions in native coronary
arteries lead to lower restenosis rates. We sought to determine the impact of stent …

Objectives: We used serial intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) to assess disease progression in
nonintervened saphenous vein graft (SVG) segments to determine the natural rate of …

IVUS measurements of stent and reference lumen dimensions and cross-sectional areas are
highly reproducible. Furthermore, paramedical personnel can be trained to perform these …

We assessed the plaque characteristics and postpercutaneous coronary intervention (PCI)
outcome according to the remodeling pattern (positive remodeling [PR], n= 113; and …

Outcomes after percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI) in saphenous vein grafts (SVG)
are inferior compared with native coronary arteries, but the mechanisms of SVG in-stent …

The aim of this study was to investigate the relation between intravascular ultrasound (IVUS)
findings and the no-reflow phenomenon and long-term outcome after percutaneous …

Remodeling occurs in diseased human coronary arteries; however, reports of remodeling in
diseased autologous saphenous vein bypass graft (SVG) stenoses are inconsistent …

Previous studies have reported differences in interventional complication rates that depend
on saphenous vein graft (SVG) lesion location. However, little is known about morphologic …
