Summary

The aim of the IMPACTavi prospective cohort study is to test feasibility and safety of clinically indicated intravascular coronary imaging with NIRS-IVUS in addition to routine coronary angiography in patients scheduled for TAVI, to improve assessment of CAD severity in this challenging group of patients.

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Combined near-infrared spectroscopy and intravascular ultrasound imaging (NIRS-IVUS)

The NIRS-IVUS technique is an intravascular imaging technique, combining morphological information derived from intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) and molecular information on plaque composition, namely its respective lipid-core burden, using spectral differences between cholesterol and collagen, detected by near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS). A combined NIRS-IVUS pullback results in a color-coded map indicating the probability of lipid-rich plaque presence in yellow, co-registered to the corresponding IVUS cross-sections.
