  • Title: Progress in coronary angioplasty.
    Author: Silverton P.
    Journal: Br J Hosp Med; 1986 Oct; 36(4):270, 274-7. PubMed ID: 2945614.
    Abstract:
    Angioplasty offers an alternative to bypass grafting for an increasing number of patients with coronary artery disease. Improvements in catheter design and manufacture have been responsible for an enlargement of the indications which now include patients with multiple vessel coronary artery disease and those with acute evolving myocardial infarction. The application of laser technology may assist in the reopening of chronically occluded arteries.
