Figure

  • Figure 1 The left coronary artery angiogram. (A) Baseline, (B) Post-DCB, and (C) 3-year follow-up coupled with corresponding OCT images. The OCT image demonstrates significant plaque regression and luminal enlargement at the severe dissection site (asterisks, from D to G and from E to H). However, no luminal enlargement was observed at the minimal dissection site (arrow, from F to I).DCB = drug-coated balloon; LA = lumen area; OCT = optical coherence tomography.
