Abstract
Coronary near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) is an intravascular imaging modality with high sensitivity and specificity for lipid core plaque detection. A combined modality catheter that coregisters NIRS measurements with intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) is available, providing the operator with both structural and compositional data. NIRS/IVUS can identify plaques at risk for periprocedural myocardial infarction during stenting, allowing implementation of preventive strategies. NIRS/IVUS is currently being studied for identification of vulnerable plaques and vulnerable patients at risk of future cardiovascular events.
