Video Summary
In this video, a group of speakers discuss the future of intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) and optical coherence tomography (OCT) in clinical practice. The speakers debate whether IVUS and OCT should be used together or if one can completely replace the other. They discuss the advantages and disadvantages of each technology and the potential impact on clinical practices. The speakers also touch on topics like lesion significance, imaging-based physiology, and the use of NIRS for identifying vulnerable plaque. Additionally, the cost implications of using imaging technologies in PCI procedures are discussed, with ongoing studies looking at the economic impact. The panelists encourage further research and advocacy for appropriate reimbursement to support the use of imaging and physiology in clinical practice.
