Why the study?
Does a novel wire-type intravascular ultrasound imaging catheter accurately measure arterial dimensions compared to histopathology?
Does a novel wire-type intravascular ultrasound imaging catheter accurately measure arterial dimensions compared to histopathology?
A novel wire-type IVUS catheter provides highly accurate measurements of arterial dimensions and plaque thickness in vitro, correlating closely with histopathology.
