OCTIVUS: OCT- vs. IVUS-Guided PCI
27 Aug 2023
Ali Nazmi Calik interviews Duk-Woo Park & Do-Yoon Kang regarding the results of the OCTIVUS trial which were presented during the ESC Congress 2023 in Amsterdam.
Key message is that optical coherence tomography (OCT) is non-inferior to intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) for guiding percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).
