Abstract
A novel technique was used to eliminate the guidewire shadow artifact by removing the guidewire in frequent domain optical coherence tomography interpretation in vivo. This technique allowed us to observe a rare iatrogenic spiral dissection of the radial artery caused by transradial coronary intervention.
