- Angiography is the primary means of detecting atherosclerotic plaques today and is used to determine the location and extent of atherosclerotic stenosis. It quickly injects the contrast agent into the blood vessel under X-ray illumination, because the contrast agent absorbs X-rays and can be developed. From the results of the visualization, blood flow containing the contrast agent can be seen to understand the physiological and anatomical changes of the blood vessel. Angiography is a valuable method for diagnosing vascular-related diseases, but it can only provide lumen contours filled with contrast media, but not the nature and extent of lesions in the wall, most of the vulnerable lesions in the blood vessels.

- Decorrelation method blood flow information is obtained by data processing after obtaining data based on conventional intravascular imaging.
- the blood flow change region is obtained by the decorrelation method. Since the position of the ultrasonic catheter is not changed, the tissue signal in the echo is relatively unchanged, and the blood flow changes with time, so A blood flow imaging region can be obtained by analyzing the decorrelation of the ultrasound echo data.
