This manuscript examines intravascular imaging with optical coherence tomography (OCT). OCT is a potentially attractive intravascular imaging technology due to its high resolution, small catheters/guidewires, and ability to be combined with spectroscopic techniques. Its potential disadvantages remain its limited penetration and signal attenuation by blood. The manuscript reviews unstable plaque, OCT principles, historical development, current challenges, and comparison with IVUS.
本手稿探讨了光学相干断层扫描（OCT）的血管内成像。由于其高分辨率、小型导管/导丝以及与光谱技术相结合的能力，OCT是一种具有潜在吸引力的血管内成像技术。其潜在的缺点仍然是穿透深度有限以及血液对信号的衰减。该手稿回顾了不稳定斑块、OCT原理、历史发展、当前挑战以及与血管内超声（IVUS）的比较。
