Abstract
Koroner arter hastalığının değerlendirilmesinde, son yıllarda elde edilen teknolojik ilerlemeler sayesinde yeni yöntemler kullanılmaya başlanmıştır. Bunlardan biri de koroner anjiyografiyi tamamlayan bir metot olan intravasküler ultrason (IVUS)’dur. Bu teknik femoral arterden koroner arterlere ulaşan bir ultrason transduseri ile görüntü almaya dayanır. IVUS, arteriyel duvar yapısı, aterosklerotik plak yoğunluğu ve darlık bulunan damardaki akım özellikleri hakkında bilgi sağlar. İnvivo olarak aterosklerotik hastalık seyrini göstermede eşsiz bir metottur. Bazı zorluklara rağmen IVUS ile elde edilen bilgiler diğer görüntüleme metotları ile sağlanamaz. IVUS girişimsel kardiyolojide devrim niteliğinde gelişmeler sağlamış ve verilen klinik kararları büyük ölçüde değiştirmiştir.
New diagnostic methods are being introduced to evaluate coronary artery disease, owing to the advances in technology in the recent years. One of these is intravascular ultrasound (IVUS), which is a completing method of coronary angiography. This technique is based on the imaging by an ultrasound catheter introduced from femoral artery and advanced into the coronary arteries. IVUS provides information about arterial wall structure, atherosclerotic plaque density and flow characteristics of obstructed vessel. It is a unique method for demonstration of the atherosclerotic disease process in vivo. Despite some obstacles, the data obtained by IVUS could not be provided by other imaging modalities. IVUS has provided revolutionary progress in invasive cardiology and changed the clinical decisions to a great extend. Key
