Early detection of restenosis after successful percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty by exercise-redistribution Thallium scintigraphy [PDF]

American Journal of Cardiology, 1985
The value of exercise testing and thallium scintigraphy in predicting recurrence of angina pectoris and restenosis after a primary successful transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) was prospectively evaluated. In 89 patients, a symptom-limited exercise

Assessment of percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty by quantitative coronary angiography: diameter versus densitometric area measurements [PDF]

American Journal of Cardiology, 1984
Cineangiograms of 138 patients who underwent percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) were analyzed with a computer-based coronary angiography analysis system. The results before and after dilatation are presented.

Percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty

Journal of the American College of Cardiology, 1985
Dotter and Judkins (1) in 1964 reported the use of coaxial dilating catheters in remodeling the lumen of obstructed peripheral arteries. In Zurich in 1977 Griintzig (2) reported the first transcutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty using a system for mechanically dilating a stenosed epicar• dial artery.

Percutaneous Transluminal Coronary Angioplasty

The American Journal of the Medical Sciences, 1984
Percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty appears to be an effective alternative to coronary artery bypass surgery in patients whose coronary artery anatomy is suitable--that is, an individual with single (or, at most, double) vessel coronary artery disease whose stenoses are proximal, discrete, subtotal, concentric and noncalcified.

Percutaneous Transluminal Coronary Angioplasty

AJN, American Journal of Nursing, 1981
Percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) has recently gained acceptance and popularity in the United States as an alternative to coronary artery bypass surgery for selected patients who have coronary disease. The interventional radiologist, with the use of x-ray imaging and percutaneously introduced catheters, can now diagnose and treat ...
