Angioplasty

Angioplasty is a medical procedure to open narrowed or blocked arteries, typically in the heart, to restore blood flow. It involves inserting a thin tube (catheter) with a small balloon at the tip into the affected artery. Once in place, the balloon is inflated to widen the artery, often followed by placing a stent to keep it open. Angioplasty is commonly used to treat conditions like coronary artery disease and can help prevent heart attacks and improve blood circulation.
