Drug Coated Balloon Angioplasty in Failing AV Fistulas: A Randomized Controlled Trial.
BACKGROUND Restenosis remains a problem in hemodialysis access interventions. Paclitaxel-coated balloons have shown promise in reducing access-related restenosis in small trials.

Measurement of pressure and assessment of cavitation for a 22.5-kHz intra-arterial angioplasty device [PDF]
This study was performed to understand better the mechanisms of action of an (22.5 kHz) ultrasonic wire catheter device used to remove atheromatous plaque in diseased blood vessels (ultrasonic angioplasty).

Abstract Objectives Chronic mesenteric ischaemia (CMI) is an underdiagnosed but severe condition. Access to functional testing is often limited and the diagnosis is usually based primarily on symptoms and imaging. One of the functional tests available is measurement of the splanchnic blood flow (SBF).

Usage of excimer laser in coronary and peripheral artery stenosis – analysis of its safety aspect
Introduction The technology of laser atherectomy has been known for about 20 years. Initial studies were not encouraging due to similar or lower efficacy compared to conventional angioplasty and greater complication rate.

A Comparison of Immediate Angioplasty with Thrombolytic Therapy for Acute Myocardial Infarction
Background The success of thrombolytic therapy for acute myocardial infarction is limited by bleeding complications, the impossibility of reperfusing all occluded coronary arteries, recurrent myocardial ischemia, and the relatively small number of ...

Robust Landmark-based Stent Tracking in X-ray Fluoroscopy [PDF]
In clinical procedures of angioplasty (i.e., open clogged coronary arteries), devices such as balloons and stents need to be placed and expanded in arteries under the guidance of X-ray fluoroscopy. Due to the limitation of X-ray dose, the resulting images are often noisy.
