Coronary Angioplasty
Coronary Angioplasty, also known as Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI), is an advanced, minimally invasive procedure used to restore normal blood flow to the heart by opening blocked or narrowed coronary arteries. This life-saving procedure helps relieve symptoms, prevent heart attacks, and significantly improve heart function and quality of life.
