<br/><br/> Despite contemporary advances in stent technology, in-stent restenosis (ISR) remains a common issue following percutaneous coronary intervention. A novel classification system based on underlying mechanism of action of restenosis was recently introduced. The Waksman In-Stent Restenosis Classification characterizes different patterns of ISR to best delineate the type of restenosis and help guide treatment. Intravascular imaging with either intravascular ultrasound or optical coherence tomography allows for real-time evaluation of ISR. We herein provide an illustrative review of the Waksman In-Stent Restenosis Classification. Copyright (c) 2021. Published by Elsevier Inc.
