[Possibilities of arterioscopy].
Today, technically optimized fiberoptical systems have become available for direct visualization of the arterial inner wall. The increasing significance of interventional revascularization techniques opens the door to new adjuvant diagnostic and therapeutic indications for arterioscopy, in addition to the earlier mainly intraoperative use. Especially for vascular wall reconstruction with percutaneous atherectomy, the angioscopic identification of residual intraluminal plaque material helps to optimize the procedure. On the basis of our own experience, a critical evaluation of arterioscopy is presented.
