The historical background to angioscopy shows that the principal successes recorded by its use result from the miniaturization of fibroscopes and the progress in video imaging. The first tentative use of angioscopy was by surgeons during operations carried out at about 1970, that of percutaneous angioscopy dating from 1984. The material used for diagnostic (fibroscope, cinecamera, video system, flushing pump) and interventional (fibroscope, clamps, Dormia cage, endoprostheses ... ) angioscopy is such that the basic equipment requires an outlay of about 150 to 200,000 francs. Percutaneous angioscopy implies the insertion of a catheter allowing flushing of the arterial lumen by means of a pressurized perfusion pump which, when reversed, is transformed into an aspirating pump for removal of the clot and/or atheromatous debris. The procedure is simple and does not expose to more complications than conventional arteriography.
血管镜检查的历史背景表明，其应用所取得的主要成功源于纤维内镜的小型化和视频成像技术的进步。血管镜检查的首次尝试性应用是在1970年左右外科医生进行手术时，经皮血管镜检查则始于1984年。用于诊断性（纤维内镜、电影摄影机、视频系统、冲洗泵）和介入性（纤维内镜、夹子、多尔米亚网篮、内置假体……）血管镜检查的材料使得基本设备需要约15万至20万法郎的费用。经皮血管镜检查意味着插入一根导管，通过加压灌注泵冲洗动脉腔，当该泵反转时，可转变为抽吸泵以清除血栓和/或动脉粥样硬化碎片。该操作简单，与传统动脉造影相比不会引发更多并发症。
