A Feasibility Study of the DyeVert™ Plus Contrast Reduction System to Reduce Contrast Media Volumes in Percutaneous Coronary Procedures Using Optical Coherence Tomography.

Objective: To evaluate the feasibility of using the DyeVert™ Plus EZ Contrast Reduction System in optical coherence tomography (OCT)-guided percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) procedures and to assess OCT image quality.

Background: OCT is employed as a powerful intravascular imaging modality; however, it requires blood displacement via contrast injection during image acquisition, thereby posing risk of nephrotoxicity. The DyeVert System is designed to reduce and facilitate monitoring of contrast media volume (CMV) delivered, without diminishing image quality.
