Popis: | Optical coherence tomography presents a quantum leap in intravascular imaging. Its user-friendliness and sheer ‘beauty’ of captured images have often been reasons for this being ubiquitous in conferences and meetings around the world. Despite this, like all new technologies, optical coherence tomography remains a tool waiting for an indication. This article will summarize the background and critically evaluate currently available evidence in this rapidly changing field. |
