TCT-605 Introduction of a Novel and Robust Parameter to Quantifiy Coronary Plaque Burden by OCT: Evaluation of Feasibility, Interobserver Analysis and Graphical Illustration of “Luminal Surface Plaque Area”

We aimed to implement (1) a standardized, computational algorithm to analyze all coronary plaques in an OCT pullback, and to introduce (2) a novel parameter - luminal plaque surface area - as a better description of plaque burden. Plaque assessment consisted of: (a) plaque count of each subtype
