#balloon dilation

• Angioplasty — A minimally invasive surgical intervention within interventional radiology and cardiology, used for the widening, restoration, or structural reconstruction of the lumen of a narrowed or occluded blood vessel. The procedure is well-defined by introducing a catheter equipped with an inflatable balloon at its tip, which is inflated at the stenosis level to dilate the vascular wall, frequently accompanied by the permanent placement of a metallic stent to maintain circulatory patency.
