Summary

The study aims to assess contemporary practice in OCT use during routine interven-tional practice and to assess the impact of the MLD-MAX algorithm on real-world PCI in a large unselected European all-comer-study cohort.

Detailed description

Angiography is the current standard method to guide PCI strategy in clinical practice. However, angiography has a number of well-described limitations, primarily through only providing an assessment of luminal dimensions without delineation of the burden of atheroma-tous disease. Angiography also provides suboptimal assessment of post PCI complications such as stent underexpansion or malapposi-tion, residual dissections or thrombus, and tissue prolapse. These limi-tations may be overcome in part by intravascular imaging (IVI), which allows tomographic, cross-sectional imaging of the vessel wall. Meta-analyses of randomized and registry studies of IVI-guided vs. angi-ography-guided PCI have suggested that IVI-guidance may improve clinical outcome following PCI. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) provides high-resolution (10-20 μm) cross-sectional images of plaque microarchitecture, stent place-ment and size and strut coverage. Recently the MLD-MAX algorithm was developed to guide and stand-ardize coronary stent implantation based on sizing of the vessel at the proximal and distal reference using the EEL.
