are Embracing IVUS.

SAN DIEGO, Oct. 22 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Volcano Corporation (Nasdaq: VOLC), a leading manufacturer of intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) and functional measurement (FM) technology, announced today activities planned for the 2007 Transcatheter Cardiovascular Therapeutics (TCT) conference that will take place from October 20th to October 25th in Washington D.C.

Live Case Examples

TCT's live cases will highlight advanced practices in stenting as performed by leading interventionalists worldwide. The use of IVUS in bare metal and drug eluting stent procedures is increasing as the importance of accurate stent placement and proper stent expansion has attracted renewed attention in recent months. Volcano's phased array and new rotational IVUS systems are expected to be incorporated into many TCT live case procedures. Among the systems expected to be demonstrated is Volcano's new fully integrated IVUS system, the s5i, which can offer significant workflow and efficiency improvements.

Studies

New and current studies designed to clarify the role of IVUS in helping to improve stenting outcomes will be highlighted at TCT 2007. Volcano will announce sponsorship of a major study designed to examine the role of IVUS in accurate sten
