Figure 1 Schematic description of the procedure and data acquisition. After the initial angiogram, intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) with electrocardiogram-gated radiofrequency (RF) data was recorded. Directional coronary atherectomy was performed just one time with high pressure at the target lesion, and the tissue sample was extracted from the atherocatheter for post-processing. After debulking, an angiogram and electrocardiogram-gated RF data acquisition were performed.
