?:definition
  • Laser scanning software designed to operate optical coherence tomography (OCT) scanning systems that use interferometer techniques to get real-time images inside the vasculature (i.e., intravascular). The software performs a variety of algorithms for analysis of both data and image characteristics. This permits the assessment of complex lesions inside the vasculature (e.g., peripheral and coronary arteries). The software allows for accurate internal measurement in the vasculature such as lesion length and determination of the size of appropriate stents in patients that are or will be candidates to intravascular procedures. Intravascular OCT laser scanning system software is usually not available separate from the laser scanning system but may be updated (i.e., through the release of modified versions) during the life of the system. Dedicated intravascular OCT laser scanning system software with algorithms for evaluation of atherosclerotic plaque components and performing internal measurements in the coronary arteries is also available.
