Gray scale IVUS, is a sound-based imaging modality that enables accurate assessment of vessel geometry / plaque phenotype and a major adjunctive imaging tool during coronary stenting

The IVUS principle is based on the degree of reflectivity of the emitted  ultrasound which is highly dependent on tissue composition

IVUS spatial resolution is in the range of 150-200 μm which is ~ 10 times lower than OCT’s spatial resolution (~ 10 μm)
