Calcified Lesion Assessment and Intervention in Complex Percutaneous Coronary Intervention: Overview of Angioplasty, Atherectomy, and Lithotripsy

Calcific coronary artery disease intervention is associated with uniformly worse short-term procedural and long-term clinical results compared with treatment of non-calcified lesions. Multiple intravascular imaging tools currently exist to aid the identification and detailed characterization of intr...
