Read the full statement (336 words)

The Volcano System is used for the qualitative and quantitative evaluation of vascular morphology in the coronary arteries and vessels of the peripheral vasculature. It is also indicated as an adjunct to conventional angiographic procedures to provide an image of vessel lumen and wall structures.

ChromaFlo is indicated for qualitative blood flow information from peripheral and coronary vasculature; flow information can be an adjunct to other methods of estimating blood flow and blood perfusion.

VH IVUS is intended to be used in conjunction with imaging catheters during diagnostic ultrasound imaging of the peripheral and coronary vasculature. The Volcano VH IVUS System is intended to semi-automatically visualize boundary features and perform spectral analysis of RF ultrasound signals of vascular features that the user may wish to examine more closely during routine diagnostic ultrasound imaging examinations.

The pressure feature is intended for use in all blood vessels, including coronary and peripheral arteries, to measure intravascular blood pressure during diagnostic angiography and/or interventional procedures.

Rotational 45MHz feature is intended for the qualitative and quantitative evaluation of vascular morphology in the coronary arteries and vasculature as an adjunct to conventional angiographic procedures to provide an image of the vessel lumen and the wall structures. The Pullback feature of the PIMr withdraws the imaging core within the protective sheath for a maximum of 15 cm.

The FFR v2.5 Modality of the s5/s5i/CORE and CORE Mobile Precision Guided Therapy System is indicated in all blood vessels, including coronary and peripheral arteries, to measure intravascular blood pressure during diagnostic angiography and/or interventional procedures.

The iFR Modality is intended to be used in conjunction with currently marketed Volcano pressure wires. In the coronary anatomy, the iFR modality has a diagnostic cut-point of 0.89 which represents an ischemic threshold and can reliably guide revascularization decisions during diagnostic catheterization procedure. When used as for a pullback assessment, the iFR modality is intended as a visual aid in decision making by indicating the relative location and severity of the stenoses such as, multiple lesions or diffuse disease.

Indications for use read by OCR from a scanned FDA summary, so letters may be misread. Check the PDF before quoting it.
