It is used to provide definitive images of the coronary arteries that reveal atherosclerotic blockage to blood flow so that those blockages can be surgically bypassed, opened (with angioplasty or stenting, for example), or treated with medications. CAUTION!Potential hazards of the procedure include...

Background: This study aimed to investigate whether intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) combined with angiography during percutaneous transluminal angioplasty impacts treatment strategies and the 12-month patency of the femoropopliteal artery, compared to angiography alone. Methods: This retrospective, single-...
More importantly, although a negative scan may mean a low probability of significant artery blockage in asymptomatic people with or without a previous cardiac event (e.g., myocardial infarction, bypass surgery, angioplasty, etc.), an unstable or vulnerable plaque may go undetected by ultrafast CT,...
Teirstein et al170 conduced a pivotal study that proved the concept of intra-renal(IR) fenoldopam in patients undergoing coronary angiography and angioplasty. Compared with intravenous fenoldopam, IR administration was associated with a significant increase in GFR (73.7 ml/min vs 62. 6 ml/min...

IVUS and OCT appear to provide a safer procedure of percutaneous coronary angioplasty, likely due to the overall greater radiological performance of these modalities compared to angiography, thereby allowing more successful, more refined, and less complicated primary intervention. In particular, the examin...

MATERIALS AND METHODS Unilateral hemodynamically significant RAS (>50%) was induced surgically in six pigs with use of reverse cable ties. One to two weeks after surgery, each pig underwent x-ray DSA and MR angiography before and after percutaneous transluminal balloon angioplasty (PTA). X-ray ...
