People who had a special heart scan during stent placement
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study follows people who already had a stent put in (PCI) using a special imaging test (NIRS-IVUS) to look at heart outcomes over time. If you agreed and can attend follow-up visits, this registry may help doctors better understand how this imaging-guided approach performs.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You had a heart procedure called PCI (stent placement) using NIRS-IVUS imaging
- You agree to the study plan and complete follow-up visits
- You are able to do the required heart imaging/angiography during the study
- You do not have severe heart failure symptoms that make angiography unsafe
- You are not expected to have less than 1 year to live due to other illnesses
- If you can become pregnant, you do not plan pregnancy during the study period

This study tests whether giving a drug called nicorandil directly into the heart artery just before placing a stent can help keep blood flow normal and reduce complications after the procedure.
This trial compares two ways doctors place heart stents in patients having a heart attack or unstable chest pain. One method uses ultrasound imaging inside the artery (IVUS), and the other uses standard X-ray imaging. The goal is to see which approach leads to better outcomes.
This study tests a new imaging technique to help doctors see inside your heart arteries during a stent procedure. It may help guide treatment and improve outcomes for people with heart disease.
This study uses advanced imaging techniques to look at the build-up inside heart arteries in people with stable angina. It aims to help doctors understand and treat these blockages more accurately.
This trial compares two ways of measuring blood flow inside the heart arteries (IVUS vs FFR) to help decide which non–culprit artery narrowings need a stent after a recent heart attack. It may help doctors choose the best targets for PCI and avoid unnecessary procedures.
This study tests whether using a tiny pressure sensor in heart arteries during a procedure can better guide where to place a stent. It may help doctors choose the safest and most effective stent plan by more accurately measuring artery narrowing.
