Quantitative assessment of the stent/scaffold strut embedment analysis by optical coherence tomography

The degree of stent/scaffold embedment could be a surrogate parameter of the vessel wall-stent/scaffold interaction and could have biological implications in the vascular response. We have developed a new specific software for the quantitative evaluation of embedment of struts by optical coherence t...
