The Transulnar Approach to Coronary Angiography and Intervention: Assessing the Anatomy of the Ulnar Artery Using Angiography
03/01/2022
The transulnar approach has been proposed as a safe alternative to the more established transradial approach for cardiac catheterization. However, no study has assessed the anatomy and variability of the ulnar artery using angiography.

Angiographic Lesion Discordance in Women Presenting With Ischemic Heart Disease: Comparison of Visual Assessment, Quantitative Coronary Angiography, and Quantitative Flow Ratio
03/01/2022
Although visual assessment of stenosis severity is routinely used to guide coronary revascularization, there are concerns about its accuracy, especially in women, who present a higher variability in coronary anatomy and ischemic heart disease.
