AB  - Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is an increasingly available intracoronary 
      imaging modality that provides highresolution imaging of coronary arteries and 
      guides operators in percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) by accurately 
      defining luminal geometry and detailed plaque composition. The two cases under 
      discussion in this report, presented with acute ST elevation myocardial 
      infarction (STEMI) with angiography showing minor narrowing (<30%) with TIMI III 
      flow in which OCT-guided approach was used regarding the management owing to its 
      improved temporal and axial resolution, thus providing proper plaque assessment 
      and subsequent proper management.
