Gallery of images obtained with different intracoronary imaging tools. (A) OCT cross section showing a coronary plaque at high-risk of rupture with a thin-cap (arrow head) covering a lipid-rich atheroma. (B) OCT cross section showing a coronary dissection with a clear distinction of the true lumen (arrow head) and the false lumen (asterisk). (C) OCT cross section showing a calcified nodule (asterisk). (D) OCT cross section showing in-stent neointimal growth (asterisk) causing re-stenosis; the arrow head shows a small intimal dissection. (E) Optimal correspondence between images obtained with IVUS/NIRS (E) and OCT (E') showing a cracked calcific plaque after treatment with intravascular lithotripsy (with arrow heads showing corresponding cleavage planes and asterisks showing a calcific plaque). (F) OCT pullback showing a precise ostial stent implantation with no stent struts protruding into the main vessel (asterisks) including 3D reconstruction of the bifurcation site (F').
