New treatment approach for calcified nodules shown to improve coronary stent expansion
A randomized clinical trial at The Mount Sinai Hospital found that combining two techniques for removing calcium nodules—rotational atherectomy and intravascular lithotripsy (IVL)—before coronary stent placement allowed stents to expand more fully than IVL alone in patients with calcified coronary n
