Intravascular Ultrasound Imaging as Applied to the Aorta: A New Tool for the Cardiovascular Surgeon
2008, Annals of Thoracic SurgeryCitation Excerpt :The reflections from collagen and elastin are stronger than smooth-muscle cells, revealing the muscular media as a hypoechoic circle, distinct from the reflective intima and adventitia. The use of three-dimensional IVUS technology [4–7] is of particular importance in preventing suboptimal intraluminal device deployment that may not be appreciated on angiography, as well as selecting the size of the endovascular device to use. Intravascular ultrasound three-dimensional images are created by the computer using an edge-tracking formula (algorithm).

2006, Seminars in Vascular SurgeryCitation Excerpt :IVUS allows for measurements of luminal dimensions (ie, stent size selection) and assessment of adequate proximal and distal landing zones, which contribute to successful endograft exclusion of aneurysms. Comparisons with angiography, computed tomography (CT) and IVUS have shown IVUS measurements to be the most accurate method to determine luminal dimensions and fixation sites.2,5,6 Up to 20% of patients have discrepancies between preoperative CT imaging and intraoperative IVUS measurements requiring changes in graft selection.4
