Yongin Severance Hospital’s cardiology faculty said,’Successful optical coherence tomography-guided stent ablation with rotational atherectomy for an unexpanded stent-1 (Prof. Yong-cheol Kim, Corresponding Author Prof. Deok-Gyu Cho)’ thesis introduces a case in which the incompletely inflated stent area was removed using OCT and a high-difficulty procedure was completed using a drug-coated balloon.
Published in The Anatolian Journal of Cardiology in February,’Ambiguous lesion on coronary angiography diagnosed as a calcified plaque using optical coherence tomography-First author Professor Oh-Hyun Lee , Corresponding author Prof. Yong-cheol Kim)’ paper, presented a case of successful treatment of an elderly emergency patient with sudden chest pain by using only drug therapy without cardiovascular stent implantation using OCT with higher resolution than coronary angiography. did.
“Yongin Severance Hospital is aiming to become an OCT specialization center,” said Deok-gyu Cho, director of the Cardiovascular Center of Yongin Severance Hospital. As the result of the introduction of related research in academic journals, we will use OCT more actively to treat patients.”
