Study Comparing Two Methods To Guide Coronary Stent Implantation: Ilumien Iv

Description

Men and women whose heart arteries have significant narrowing requiring treatment sought for a study comparing two systems to guide implentation of a stent to relieve blocked blood flow to your heart.

Overview

We are comparing two methods for guiding placement of a stent in people who have a blockage in their artery that is blocking blood flow to their heart and are at a high risk for heart attack.

What we're hoping for

We hope to improve stent placement for people who are at high risk for heart attack.
