Use of Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Imaging Angiography to Follow-Up Arterial Remodeling in an Animal Model [PDF]

, 1998
Appropriately sized arteries in small animals may be possible models for studying the remodeling process as occurs after arterial balloon injury in humans. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is able to noninvasively image tissue in vivo.

Feasibility and performance of a device for automatic self-detection of symptomatic acute coronary artery occlusion in outpatients with coronary artery disease : a multicentre observational study [PDF]

, 2019
Background Time delay between onset of symptoms and seeking medical attention is a major determinant of mortality and morbidity in patients with acute coronary artery occlusion. Response time might be reduced by reliable self-detection.

Impending coronary perforation after cutting balloon angioplasty [PDF]

Heart, 2004
Cutting balloon angioplasty was used to treat an in-stent restenotic lesion. Intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) revealed profound dissection (below left, arrows), and deep vessel wall injury reaching the adventitia with haematoma formation (below left, club). After intravascular ultrasound, angiography revealed minor extravasation …

Hybrid approach for treating patient with chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension and extrinsic compression of left main coronary artery

Russian Open Medical Journal, 2019
Background ― Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) is a rare life-threatening form of pulmonary artery hypertension. CTEPH is potentially curable by performing surgical operation – pulmonary thrombendarteriectomy. Unfortunately, about 36%

Cutting balloon coronary angioplasty—initial clinical experience [PDF]

Clinical Cardiology, 1993
AbstractThe success of percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty is limited by acute occlusion and late restenosis. In 25 patients (20 men, 5 women, age range 36–81 years) coronary angioplasty was performed using a new cutting balloon into which 3–4 longitudinally orientated blades are incorporated so as to reduce the rate of severe dissections ...

The IkB kinase inhibitor nuclear factor-kB essential modulator–binding domain peptide for inhibition of balloon injury-induced neointimal formation [PDF]

, 2009
Objective—The activation of nuclear factor-kB (NF-kB) is a crucial step in the arterial wall’s response to injury. The identification and characterization of the NF-kB essential modulator– binding domain (NBD) peptide, which can block the activation of

Rupture of the arterial wall causes deflection in pressure time course during ex vivo balloon angioplasty [PDF]

, 1997
A relation between restenosis and arterial lesions resulting from balloon angioplasty has been suggested in literature. Nevertheless, it is unclear to what extent angioplasty-induced arterial wall lesions contribute to the occurrence of restenosis.

FLEXIBILITY TEST OF THE TOOLS OF ANGIOPLASTY

Acta Polytechnica CTU Proceedings, 2016
Coronary angioplasty is a procedure used to treat the narrowed coronary arteries. Physicians operate with many different tools during the intervention, the main devices are the following: guidewires, guiding catheters, balloon catheters and stents.
