Inclusion

  • \>=18yrs and undergoing elective or non-emergent PCI of a de novo native coronary artery lesion
  • Treatment plan (at time of consent and at time of intervention) must be to perform an intervention on no more than 2 lesions, where one is the culprit lesion and the other lesion requires revascularization at the discretion of the treating physician.

  • A contraindication to anticoagulation or increased risk of bleeding.
  • Clinically significant abnormal laboratory findings
  • Presence of a drug eluting stent in the artery for experimental study prior to NIR measurement, unless all struts are covered by endothelium as documented by IVUS
  • Elective PCI on or through bypass grafts or LIMA grafts
  • Allergy or intolerance to aspirin or clopidogrel
  • Planned use of laser ablation, rotational ablation, brachytherapy, or atherectomy device
  • Enrollment or participation in any other medication trial within the previous 30 days
  • Current enrollment participation or enrolled in another clinical trial
  • Any other factor that the investigator feels would put the patient at increased risk if participating in the protocol
