IVUS is routinely used to clarify angiographic ambiguity in many clinical scenarios. In general, IVUS is more useful incomplex lesions where optimization ofacute results iscritical to improve long-term outcome (33). In bifurcation lesions, IVUS provides valuable baseline and iterative information regarding plaque distribution, particularly in relation to the SB ostium, vessel size, and appropriateness of stent expansion particularly at the SB ostium [Fig. 13(A) to 13(C)].
Furukawa et al. (6) demonstrated that the presence and severity of ostial SB plaque as
observed by IVUS is the most important predictor of SB occlusion after bifurcation PCI. In

this study, the SB ostium was assessed by an IVUS pullback from distal to proximal MV and was classified according to the IVUS findings into group 1, angiographic ostial stenosis due to atherosclerotic plaque visualized only in the MV (n = 61); and group 2, angiographic ostial stenosis due to atherosclerotic plaque involving the SB ostium. There were no differences in baseline SB reference diameter (1.75 ± 0.48 mm) and percent diameter stenosis between the groups. After MV stenting, group 2 had significantly higher frequency of SB deterioration (defined as final TIMI flow ≤2) compared to group 1 (35% vs. 8.2%, p = 0.003). Also, the presence ofeccentric and diffuse plaque in the MVaround the SB ostium significantly increased SB deterioration.
The question whether IVUS pullback in the MV is sufficient to characterize the degree of SB ostium involvement, compared to an IVUS pullback from the SB, is important and the data suggest that it is not (Fig. 14). Van der Waal and colleagues (34) performed IVUS pullback in the MV and the SB in bifurcation lesions. They studied three segments: (a) distal segment, measured 3 mm distal to the bifurcation (MV and SB); (b) bifurcation carina,measured3mm starting atthe first framein which thedistal branch (MVor SB) wasvisualized and endedwhere the LAD assumed a circular shape; and (c) proximal MV (LAD), measured 3 mm proximal to the bifurcation carina. This study showed the following: (i) IVUS measurements of the proximal MV differed significantly between the MV versus the SB pullback; (ii) the mean vessel area and mean vessel diameter at the carina were significantly larger during MV pullback compared to SB pullback; and (iii) there was no relationship between the IVUS measurements at different bifurcation segments and the 3-D bifurcation angle.
Nonetheless, IVUS interrogation of bifurcation lesions may be challenging because the image in the carina usuallyappears oval or irregular in shape. Standardized IVUS methodology for bifurcation analysis has not been considered in previous IVUS and bifurcation consensus documents. Thus, the findings from van der Waal et al. study strengthen the recommendation for performance of IVUS pullbacks from both the MV and the SB for assessment of bifurcations rather than one pullback, as two pullbacks allow better understanding of the geometry of the bifurcation, especially the SB ostium. One of the authors of this chapter (Marco Costa, MD, personal communication) proposed an IVUS methodology for bifurcation lesions as depicted in Figure 15. It includes performance of quantitative analysis in four distinct segments including proximal MV,distal MV, SB, and carina. The carina was defined within 5 mm from the bifurcation point and calculated as the average of value obtained from IVUS pullbacks from both the MV and the SB.

Virtual Histology and Optical Coherence Tomography
Although IVUS has provided valuable insights into our understanding of bifurcation anatomy and its response to intervention, IVUS imaging does not have the required resolution to pro­vide insights into bifurcation plaque vulnerability. Recent studies using virtual histology (VH) and optical coherence tomography (OCT) have shed light on these issues. A study by Gonzalo et al. (35) evaluated the in vivo frequency and distribution of high-risk plaques at bifurcations using a combined plaque assessment with IVUS-VH and OCT. IVUS-VH and OCT analysis of coronary bifurcations was performed in 30 patients (103 lesions). All lesions were con­sidered nonsignificant by angiographic criteria and had a MLA >4.0 mm

analyzed at three cross-section locations: (a) proximal rim of the ostium (first frame proximal to the SB take-off); (b) in-bifurcation (frame with the larger SB ostial diameter); and (c) distal rim of the SB ostium (first frame distal to the SB take-off) (Fig. 16). The authors predefined the following characteristics for identifying high-risk plaque morphology: (a) fibroatheroma (FA)-–the presence of more than 10% confluent necrotic core covered by a fibrous cap thicker than 65 ␮m; (b) calcified FA (CaFA)-–FA with more than 10% of confluent dense calcium; (c) IVUS-VH/OCT-derived thin capped FA (TCFA)-–more than 10% confluent necrotic core at the lumen covered by a fibrous cap <65 ␮m; and (d) IVUS-VH/OCT-derived calcified TCFA (CaTCFA)-–TCFA with more than 10% of confluent dense-calcium.
Overall, themean area ofnecrotic coreand the mean percentage of necrotic core decreased from proximal to distal location. Conversely, the mean cap thickness was lower in the proximal rim and increased from proximal to distal location. The distribution of FA, CaFA, TCFA, and CaTCFA plaque components were 8.4%, 14.7%, 10.5%, and 5.3% in the proximal rim; 4.9%,
14.6%, 7.8%, and 5.8% in the in-bifurcation; and 5.3%, 13.7%, 3.2%, and 2.1% in the distal rim; respectively. In addition, thin caps (<65 ␮m) were more often located in the proximal rim

Multislice Computed Tomography (MSCT)
The introduction of MSCT presentsa greatopportunity to study and categorize the 3-D structure of coronary bifurcation anatomy (Fig. 17).
A study by van der Giessen et al. (36) assessed the plaque distribution and morphology near bifurcations with 64-slice computed tomography in relation to wall shear stress distribu­tion. In this analysis, plaque distribution was evaluated in two locations: distal LM-LAD/LCx and LAD/Diagonal. Analysis was performed at a plane where both the MV and the SB were visible and the distal angle was maximal. Overall, 28 patients (65 lesions) with suspected CAD underwent MSCT evaluation. Plaques were more often found in low wall shear stress regions (62–72%) compared to high wall shearstress regions(31–38%). Another study byKawasaki et al. (37) investigated bifurcation angles in 209 patients undergoing 64-MSCT because of symptoms of angina. In this study, the prevalence of “steep” (proximal) angle (<110 degrees) was signif­icantly higher in the LM (26%) compared to non-LM locations (p < 0.05), demonstrating that MSCT can clarifythe 3-D structure of coronary bifurcation and may provide useful information for bifurcation PCI strategy. Finally, a study by Rodriguez-Granillo et al. (38), investigating the differences in plaque burden at different segments of the LM bifurcation and its relationship with the bifurcation angle in 50 patients undergoing 40-row MSCT analysis, demonstrated that >90% of plaques were located opposite to theflow divider,localized at the ostial LAD.Also, the median distal angle was 88.5 degrees (diseasedLAD hadsignificantly increasedangle compared to nondiseased LAD; p = 0.018).
THE LEFT MAIN CORONARY ARTERY BIFURCATION: A DIFFERENT ANIMAL
The bifurcation anatomy of the distal left main coronary artery (LMCA) is different from that of non-LMCA bifurcations with respect to vessel size (larger) and proximal and distal angles. Although the MEDINA classification is also used to classify LMCA bifurcation lesions, it provides limited insight in terms of actionable information. The LMCA perfuse most of the

ventricular myocardium (68.8% of the cardiac muscle mass and 79% of the left ventricular car­diac muscle mass) (39). The anatomy of the LMCA has been described in detail by Reig and Petit (40). In this study, the average length of the LMCA was 10.8 mm. Short (<5 mm), medium length (>5mmto<15 mm), and long (>15 mm) LMCA was observed in 7.4%, 73.7%, and
18.9% of the study population, respectively. was 4.86 mm.
Although the LMCA often ends with a bifurcation (the LAD and the LCx), it

does divide into three or more branches in more than one-third (38%) of the cases. The average angle between the LAD and the LCx is
∼90 degrees (86.7
degrees). Correlation between the angle and the length of LM, with the longest LM having the largest angle of division, has also been reported. Autopsy has also limitations in assessing bifurcation since it does not consider the natural dynamic of the bifurcation along the cardiac cycle. Recently, a 4-D (X, Y, Z axes + time) assessment by MSCT has been developed for assessing coronary bifurcation anatomy more quantitatively, considering the movement of the heart (Fig. 18).
SUMMARY
The complexity of performing PCI in coronary bifurcation lesions is simply due to the operator efforts to maintain optimal patency of the SB while optimally treating the MV. These efforts are well justified because side branch compromise can lead to myocardial injury. The dominant viewpoint ofrelying exclusivelyon theMedina classificationto characterizebifurcation anatomy in practice and clinical trials may be misguided! The Medina classification fails to capture key bifurcation anatomicelements (SB ostium lesion severityand length, SB angulation andSB size) that have been shown to increase the risk of SB compromise during bifurcation PCI. In other words, this classification is not designed to identify the “at risk” bifurcations where the chances of SB compromise during PCI is highest. Although improvements in angiographic methods of bifurcation anatomy characterization are important other imaging modalities are needed to further enhance our understanding of bifurcation anatomy. In clinical practice, physician oper­ators should make individual judgments regarding technique choice based on comprehensive analysis of bifurcation anatomy that allow the identification of “at risk” bifurcations that may need tailored treatment techniques. With respect to the ongoing efforts to build a more relevant evidence-base for treatment of coronary bifurcation lesions more focus should be placed on inclusion of “at risk” bifurcations as defined by comprehensive anatomic analysis.
