Managing Calcium Build-Up in Heart Arteries | HCMCT Manipal Hospitals Dwarka

Calcium build-up in the heart arteries can make angioplasty and stent placement more challenging. Dr. Virbhan Balai, Consultant - Interventional Cardiology, Manipal Hospitals Dwarka, explains how heavily calcified arteries may require specialised techniques to prepare the vessel before stenting. The video covers advanced calcium-modifying techniques such as rotational atherectomy, orbital atherectomy and intravascular lithotripsy. Intravascular imaging techniques like IVUS and OCT can also help assess the arteries and refine angioplasty, supporting better stent placement and long-term outcomes.
