Coronary Intravascular Imaging

Coronary intravascular imaging is a medical technique used to visualize the inside of coronary arteries, which supply blood to the heart. Using specialized tools inserted through a small catheter, doctors can obtain detailed images of the artery walls, identifying blockages, plaque buildup, or other abnormalities. This precise imaging helps in diagnosing heart disease, planning treatments like stenting, and ensuring interventions are effective. It provides a clearer understanding of coronary health than traditional tests, allowing for more targeted and personalized care to prevent heart attacks and improve patient outcomes.
