    Abstract: In part, the disclosure relates to method for identifying regions of interest in a blood vessel. The method includes the steps of: providing OCT image data of the blood vessel; applying a plurality of different edge detection filters to the OCT image data to generate a filter response for each edge detection filter; identifying in each edge detection filter response any response maxima; combining the response maxima for each edge detection filter response while maintaining the spatial relationship of the response maxima, to thereby create edge filtered OCT data; and analyzing the edge filtered OCT data to identify a region of interest, the region of interest defined as a local cluster of response maxima. In one embodiment, one or more indicia are positioned in one or more panels to emphasize a reference vessel profile as part of a user interface.

    Abstract: An apparatus comprising a torque wire connected to an imaging probe; and a torque limiter defining a bore, a first end of the torque limiter being in mechanical communication with a motor, a second end of the torque limiter being in mechanical communication with the torque wire, the torque wire being disposed through the bore of the torque limiter. The torque limiter comprises a member defining at least one cutout which causes the torque limiter to break when rotational force on the torque wire exceeds a predetermined amount, thereby decoupling the motor from the torque wire.

    Abstract: In part, the disclosure relates to intravascular data collection systems and the software-based visualization and display of intravascular data relating to detected side branches and detected stent struts. Levels of stent malapposition can be defined using a user interface such as a slider, toggle, button, field, or other interface to specify how indicia are displayed relative to detected stent struts. In addition, the disclosure relates to methods to automatically provide a two or three-dimensional visualization suitable for assessing sidebranch and/or guide wire location during stenting. The method can use one or more a computed side branch location, a branch takeoff angle, one or more stent strut locations, and one or more lumen contours.

    Abstract: In part, the disclosure relates to intravascular data collection systems and angiography systems and the exchange of data between two or more of the foregoing and the generation and display of diagnostic information such as indicators. One or more indicators can be generated and displayed such as by overlaying or otherwise combining such indicators with images generated using an intravascular data collection system. The indicators can include longitudinal, cross-sectional, and other indictor types such as one more indicator or graphical elements suitable for indicating diagnostic information of interest. Indicators can be used to guide a user during stent delivery planning and other actions. The disclosure also relates to stent detection and shadow detection in the context of intravascular data sets obtained using a probe such as, for example, and optical coherence tomography probe or an intravascular ultrasound probe.

    Abstract: In one aspect, the invention relates to a lens (52) configured for optical coherence tomography imaging. The lens includes a substantially cylindrical body (52) having a longitudinal axis and includes a first end, an outer cylindrical surface, and a beam directing surface at a second end, the substantially cylindrical body and the outer cylindrical surface defining a trench (58) in between the first end and the beam directing surface, the beam directing surface being oriented at an angle to the longitudinal axis, and the trench being sized to accept an optical fiber. In another aspect, the invention relates to a molded lens that includes a cylindrical solid having a second end encasing a first end of a metal tube having an optical fiber glued within the bore of the metal tube and extending from the first end of the metal tube.
