Optical coherence tomography-guided assessment for spontaneous coronary artery dissection in NSTEMI: OCT as a game changer.

SCAD is an entity that in recent years has had changes in the indication of the ideal type of treatment, since the percutaneous treatment of these lesions can be challenging and the results of long-term clinical treatment are encouraging [[1]]. Introduction Spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) is an entity that in recent years has had changes in the indication of the ideal type of treatment, since the percutaneous treatment of these lesions can be challenging and the results of long-term clinical treatment are encouraging [[1]]. Intravascular imaging by Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) provides a very detailed assessment of the coronary including the demonstration of potential mechanisms of SCAD and can aggregate a lot of important information to its treatment.
