Since optical coherence tomography (OCT) was first performed in humans two decades ago,
this imaging modality has been widely adopted in research on coronary atherosclerosis and …

The introduction and subsequent iterations of drug-eluting stent technologies have
substantially improved the efficacy and safety of percutaneous coronary interventions …

Objectives This study sought to compare the performance of a novel drug-coated balloon
(DCB)(Elutax SV, Aachen Resonance, Germany), with an everolimus-eluting stent …

I. Introduction The anatomic and clinical complexity of patients with coronary artery disease
(CAD) is increasing in the United States. 1–3 While the terms “complex CAD” or “high-risk …

Background In the multicenter, randomized, sham-controlled FAVOR (Comparison of

Background Angina might persist or reoccur despite successful revascularisation with
percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and antianginal therapy. Additionally, PCI in …

Iterations in stent technologies, advances in pharmacotherapy, and awareness of the
implications of implantation techniques have markedly reduced the risk of stent failure, both …

Aims Contemporary 2nd-generation thin-strut drug-eluting stents (DES) are considered
standard of care for revascularization of patients undergoing percutaneous coronary …

Percutaneous coronary intervention has become a standard-of-care procedure in patients
with acute and chronic coronary syndromes, in which coronary stent technology is …

Background In-stent restenosis (ISR) is highly prevalent and leads to repeat
revascularisation. Long-term implications of ISR are poorly understood. Aims This study …
