ABSTRACT Performing adjunctive intravascular imaging during femoropopliteal endovascular intervention could improve treatment planning and outcome. This systematic review assessed how imaging findings of intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) and optical coherence tomography (OCT) can contribute to improving treatment planning and outcomes of patients with ...

Length of carotid stenosis predicts peri-procedural stroke or death and restenosis in patients randomized to endovascular treatment or endarterectomy. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The anatomy of carotid stenosis may influence the outcome of endovascular treatment or carotid endarterectomy. Whether anatomy favors one treatment over the other in terms of safety or efficacy has not been investigated in randomized trials.

ABSTRACT Background Intravascular lithotripsy (IVL) is an innovative treatment for coronary artery calcification (CAC). Aims This study aimed to compare procedural and clinical outcomes of intracoronary imaging (ICI)‐guided percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) versus angiography‐guided PCI with IVL in patients with CAC.

Magnesium (Mg) and its alloys are identified as prospective materials for orthopedic and cardiovascular applications because of their bio‐corrosiveness and ability to stimulate tissue reparative processes. Although compared with traditional metals, Mg is biocompatible; however, it has various problems that stem from its biodegradation nature, for ...

In-silico Analysis of Hemodynamic Indicators in Idealized Stented Coronary Arteries for Varying Stent Indentation [PDF]
In this work, we investigate the effects of stent indentation on hemodynamic indicators in stented coronary arteries. Our aim is to assess in-silico risk factors for in-stent restenosis (ISR) and thrombosis after stent implantation. The proposed model is applied to an idealized artery with Xience V stent for four indentation percentages and three mesh ...
