BACKGROUND: The optimal coronary stenting technique for true left main bifurcation lesions is uncertain. EBC MAIN (European ...

is advanced across the thrombotic total occlusion. Crossing the thrombus results in restoration of antegrade flow in the treated vessel. Consequently, the ensuing coronary angiogram enables ...

After 100 years, the 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) remains the most accessible and inexpensive noninvasive diagnostic and prognostic tool in cardiology. Almost every hospitalized patient will ...

There, she was immediately sent for an angiogram that found an almost complete ... and spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD). The Monash review also found the conflation of sex and gender ...

20 Coronary angiography has a resolution of 500 µm and the microvasculature is not visible on CT or invasive angiography. Myocardial biopsy is not a feasible diagnostic option. Therefore, currently, ...

In the GSR database the occlusion pattern was classified, based on the most proximal visible thrombus on CT angiography or MR angiography and patency of the circle of Willis (figure 1), as documented ...

Left ventricular assist devices (LVADs) are increasingly common across the heart failure population. Right ventricular failure (RVF) is a feared complication that can occur in the early post-operative ...
