The Future of Coronary Imaging and Physiology-Integrated Physiology and Imaging Case

Integrated Physiology and Imaging Case

Video Transcription

Video Summary

This video summarizes a case study of a 50-year-old male patient with ischemic cardiomyopathy and a history of various cardiac conditions. The patient underwent coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG) in the past and was admitted with unstable angina. The cardiologist performed a catheterization procedure to assess the patency and function of the grafts. It was found that the internal mammary artery graft was causing trouble, leading to stenosis. The physician used physiology measurements and imaging techniques to guide the interventions, including pre-dilation, stenting, and post-dilation. The final result showed improvement in the patient's condition.
