The bill for each intravascular ultrasound is expected to be several thousand dollars.

An intravascular ultrasound to get a better look at your blood vessels.

If intravascular ultrasound had come on the scene just a few years earlier, cardiologists say, it would have spread quickly.

Intravascular ultrasound is far from the only treatment running into resistance from insurers.

In an intravascular ultrasound, doctors thread a thin catheter into the blood vessels.

Health care experts say that the story of intravascular ultrasound illustrates a growing obstacle to the development of medical technology.

Intravascular ultrasound: This is a form of echocardiography performed during cardiac catheterization.

In addition to injecting dye into an artery to look for a blockage - the traditional method - we used intravascular ultrasound.

The field of cardiology, in which the intravascular ultrasound is a potential player, illustrates the way medical technology, with all its benefits and costs, has proliferated.

Intravascular ultrasound is a test that uses sound waves to see inside the coronary arteries, the blood vessels that supply the heart.

Cardiac imaging techniques include Coronary catheterization, echocardiogram, and Intravascular ultrasound.

Another possibility is for doctors and manufacturers to jointly perform clinical trials that could show the intravascular ultrasound saves money by improving diagnoses.

Dr. Isner of St. Elizabeth's said he and others like the intravascular ultrasound so much that they considered doing the studies themselves.

Then Dr. Nissen had an idea: a new, little-used test called intravascular ultrasound that would let him see inside the woman's arteries.

Participants will be tested periodically for up to three years with angiograms and intravascular ultrasound, a three-dimensional imaging method to precisely define how much scar forms.

Morphologically, intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) has emerged as the best current tool in the broader sense.

Intravascular ultrasound, for example, can provide information on plaque vulnerability, whereas FFR measures are only determined by plaque thickness.

The catch, cardiologists and manufacturers say, is that the only way to prove intravascular ultrasound is clinically and cost effective is to use it a lot.

Intravascular ultrasound (IVUS)

These deposits demonstrate unequivocal evidence of the disease, relatively advanced, even though the lumen of the artery is often still normal by angiographic or intravascular ultrasound.

Intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) is also used as it is able to more easily differentiate the condition from atherosclerotic disease.

Intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) may be used to assess the lesion's thickness and hardness ("calcification").

He had developed a technique, intravascular ultrasound, that involves threading a tiny ultrasound camera into arteries and directly observing plaques and precisely measuring their size.

Dr. Ouriel was the principal investigator on a five-year $5 million National Institute of Health grant to study intravascular ultrasound regarding atherosclerotic plaque.
