Role of Intravascular Ultrasound in Guiding Complex Percutaneous Coronary Interventions

Complex percutaneous coronary interventions (PCIs) are increasing in frequency due to the rapid advances in interventional cardiology. This has had a favorable impact on patients with extensive coronary artery disease and multiple comorbidities with regard to symptomatic relief and mortality. With t...
