TeachIVUS is a web-based simulation teaching tool designed for cardiovascular health professionals. The application allows users to make accurate measurements on a variety of IVUS images and then compare their measurements with a pre-stored expert measurement.
Unlike X-ray angiography, IVUS creates a cross-sectional view of the coronary artery. As the sound waves penetrate the vessel wall, a unique representation of the coronary artery lumen as well as the wall composition is obtained. Read more about IVUS.
