Observational analysis demonstrates improved procedural accuracy in complex ostial lesions, suggesting IVUS may enhance outcomes.
The ORCAS technique highlights the potential value of continuous intracoronary imaging during key procedural steps such as plaque preparation and ostial stent implantation. Real‐time IVUS guidance may support more precise assessment and execution, possibly improving procedural accuracy and consistency in complex aorto‐ostial lesions, particularly in heavily calcified coronary anatomy.
