This chapter gives an overview of on-going research and development (R&D) work that is likely to impact the future of cardiovascular OCT. Addressed first are the influences of macrotrends in healthcare delivery on R&D investment and the need for advances that lead to improvements in patient outcomes. The remainder of the chapter reviews recent work in selected topic areas: ultra-high- speed OCT technologies, 3D segmentation and visualization, angiographic co-registration, functional lesion assessment, multimodality imaging, and novel blood- clearing methods.
