INTRAVASCULAR ULTRASOUND-GUIDED STENT IMPLANTATION IMPROVES MORTALITY: LATEST EVIDENCE FROM RANDOMIZED CONTROLLED TRIALS

Improvement in MACE (major adverse cardiovascular events) from the use of intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) guidance for stent implantation has been attributed to the reduction in target lesion revascularization (TLR). We performed a comprehensive meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCT) to
