A new method for determining whether patients with heart disease need coronary stents or bypass surgery is more effective than the angiogram, which is currently used, according to research from ...
Using optimal coherence tomography (OCT) to guide stent implantation during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in patients with complex coronary lesions significantly improves survival and ...
Using intravascular imaging to guide stent implantation during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in heart disease patients significantly improves survival and reduces adverse cardiovascular ...
A new study could lead to more widespread use of imaging technique to improve survival and prevent complications. Using intravascular imaging (IVI) to guide stent implantation during complex stenting ...
Abbott aims to build optical coherence tomography into a preferred tool for guiding the placement of stents that increase blood flow to the heart muscle. But a pair of major late-breaking studies ...
Using intravascular imaging to visualize narrowed coronary arteries improves outcomes after stenting
Patients with complex coronary artery disease who underwent a stenting procedure guided by intravascular imaging were nearly 40% less likely to die of heart disease, have a heart attack caused by a ...
Reports that Parvez Kazi, Salman Khan's body double, underwent heart treatment after doctors found three coronary blockages ...
STANFORD, Calif. — Doctors may be implanting too many artery-opening stents and could improve patient outcomes — and ultimately save lives — if they did more in-depth measurements of blood flow in the ...
A 60 year old Caucasian male presented with an acute coronary syndrome in October 2003. He had a history of hypertension, tobacco use, dyslipidemia and a family history of coronary artery disease. The ...
Angioplasty is a minimally invasive procedure used to open narrowed or blocked arteries supplying blood to the heart.
