Abstract
Coronary angiography is the gold standard for evaluating coronary atherosclerotic heart disease, yet it has well-known limitations. Intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) is an invasive technique that is used to improve the assessment and management of coronary artery disease. IVUS is a readily available imaging modality that is easy to learn and interpret with low complication rates. In this literature review, the authors will review the technique and discuss the various current usages of IVUS and its limitations, safety, and complications.
