Coronary Angiography (CAG)

CTOs are blockages that have typically been present for more than three months. These blockages are a result of severe build-up of fatty deposits within the arteries.

Coronary Angioplasty (PTCA)

Clinical factors that make an angioplasty complex include elderly patients, patients with other severe diseases of the lungs, kidneys, liver, etc.

Peripheral & Carotid Angioplasty

Clinical factors that make an angioplasty complex include elderly patients, patients with other severe diseases of the lungs, kidneys, liver, etc.

Permanent & Temporary Pacemaker implant

It may be done with vascular stenting, which is the placement of a small wire mesh tube within the blood vessel to help keep it open.

ASD (Atrial septal defect) device closure

Clinical factors that make an angioplasty complex include elderly patients, patients with other severe diseases of the lungs, kidneys, liver, etc.

ICD (implantable cardioverter-defibrillator)

Clinical factors that make an angioplasty complex include elderly patients, patients with other severe diseases of the lungs, kidneys, liver, etc.

Rotablator

Pre-treating calcified lesions with rotational atherectomy can be one of the best ways to enhance proper stent placement, which is very effective.

IVUS (Intravascular Ultrasound)

Clinical factors that make an angioplasty complex include elderly patients, patients with other severe diseases of the lungs, kidneys, liver, etc.

FFR (Fractional Flow Reserve)

Clinical factors that make an angioplasty complex include elderly patients, patients with other severe diseases of the lungs, kidneys, liver, etc.
