	Innovation Chronology on CTO Coronary Intervention Guided by IVUS
	Why and When IVUS Is Used in CTO Recanalization
		Anterograde Approach to CTO Recanalization
			IVUS to define the proximal edge and validate the true lumen access
			IVUS to delimit true lumen situation versus guidewire position along with the CTO stenosis until the true distal lumen
			IVUS to size and optimize the stent
		IVUS in Retrograde CTO Recanalization
			IVUS in reverse recanalization
			IVUS in reverse CART
			IVUS in bailout
			Size and optimize the stent
