JACC Case Rep. 2024 Feb 9;29(6):102248. doi: 10.1016/j.jaccas.2024.102248. eCollection 2024 Mar 20.

Abstract

Stent underexpansion in calcified coronary stenosis is an important predictor of major short- and long-term adverse cardiovascular events. In this case, we describe a novel method for assessing stent expansion using 3-dimensional stent reconstruction with C-arm motion compensated computed tomography.

Keywords: 3-dimensional; C-arm motion compensated computed tomography; stent underexpansion.
