coronary artery elasticity :: Article Creator Intravascular Imaging Can Improve Outcomes For Complex Stenting Procedures In Patients With High-risk Calcified Coronary Artery Disease Using intravascular imaging (IVI) to guide stent implantation during complex stenting procedures is safer and more effective for patients with severely calcified coronary artery disease than conventional angiography, the more commonly used technique. Those are the findings from the largest clinical trial of its kind comparing the two methods during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). The "ECLIPSE" trial results were presented on Monday, March 31, in a Late Breaking Clinical Trial Session at the American College of Cardiology Scientific Session (ACC.25) in Chicago. These results could shift treatment options for high-risk patients. "The ECLIPSE trial shows that use of IVI to guide coronary stenting in severely calcified lesions prevents death, stent...
