Abstract
Eleven cases (including two no re-flow cases and one perforation case) were intraoperatively observed by IVUS and the specimens obtained by DCA were observed by optical microscopy. The specimen from homogeneous 2D strain was collagen dominant fibrosis and the specimen from a lesion with complex vectors contained CD68 positive cells and degenerated collagen fibers, which indicated the plaque was vulnerable.
