Explore three stages of balloon-expandable coronary stent placement. Select a stage to read the explanation.
A guidewire crosses the narrowed coronary artery. A catheter carries a deflated balloon with a stent mounted on it to the treatment site, under X-ray guidance.
The coronary arteries supply blood to the heart muscle.
Actual PCI may involve additional steps and devices. Treatment is individualised. A stent does not cure coronary artery disease; medicines and follow-up remain important. Take prescribed antiplatelet medicines as directed and discuss any changes with your treating team.
