Abstract
During the past three decades, since the invention of intravascular ultrasound (IVUS), it has become increasingly important as daily clinical applications. However, it evolved with no Japanese standards for the measurement of images, the index of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) procedures, and the reporting of results. Accordingly, the purpose of this review article is to provide an optimal and consistent approach to IVUS usage during PCI for clinicians and investigators.Keywords: Coronary artery disease; Drug-eluting stent; Intravascular ultrasound; Optical coherence tomography; Percutaneous coronary intervention
