Coronary blood-flow responses during successful percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty

With the use of thermodilution techniques, changes in coronary sinus blood flow were measured during balloon catheter dilation of a high-grade stenosis within the left anterior descending coronary artery. Postdilation increases in flow occurred in a patient who experienced complete relief from previ...

Description
Summary:	With the use of thermodilution techniques, changes in coronary sinus blood flow were measured during balloon catheter dilation of a high-grade stenosis within the left anterior descending coronary artery. Postdilation increases in flow occurred in a patient who experienced complete relief from previously incapacitating angina pectoris.
