A total of 25 patients with stable angina pectoris who underwent directional coronary atherectomy (DCA) were included in the investigation, whereby OCT was performed before and after a single debulking. The debulked region was determined on OCT and classified into fibrous tissue, lipid, calcification, thrombus, and macrophage accumulation, which were compared with histology. Changes in OCT signal intensity in the deeper intimal region after DCA were also visually evaluated.
