Clinical cases

Share coronary OCT learning needs so we can prioritize cases and refine explanations for clinicians.

Elderly patient clutching his chest while being assisted by a nurse in a hospital.

72-year-old male with unstable angina, mid-LAD stenosis; OCT performed prior to PCI to assess plaque morphology.

A detailed, photographic-style workstation setup featuring a large, ultra-wide medical-grade monitor displaying a vivid coronary OCT pullback sequence, with multiple frames aligned in series and color-coded annotations near areas of plaque. The monitor rests on a clean, light gray desk beside a neatly stacked set of cardiology textbooks and a slim, metallic digital caliper. Cool, diffused overhead lighting creates minimal glare, emphasizing clarity on the screen. The background is softly blurred, hinting at a modern catheterization lab environment with stainless steel equipment. Captured from a slightly elevated angle using a moderate depth of field, the image feels organized, analytical, and ideal for clinical education.

An educational, photographic-style layout of multiple coronary OCT frames arranged in a grid on a digital tablet screen, each frame illustrating a different pathology: calcified plaque with bright, sharply delineated nodules; lipid-rich plaque with signal-poor regions; malapposed stent struts; and thrombus with irregular protrusions into the lumen. The tablet rests on a smooth white surface beside a neatly arranged notepad and a precision pen. Soft, natural daylight from an unseen window casts gentle, diagonal shadows, creating a calm, studious atmosphere. Shot from a slightly elevated, top-down perspective with sharp focus, the composition is clean, modern, and tailored to an atlas-style educational resource.
