Clinical Focus:
• Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement (TAVR) for minimally invasive treatment of aortic valve disease
• MitraClip / transcatheter mitral valve repair (TMVR) for managing mitral regurgitation without open-heart surgery
• Complex coronary angioplasty procedures for high-risk and multi-vessel heart disease
• Laser-assisted angioplasty techniques for clearing severe arterial blockages
• Use of bioresorbable (bio-absorbable) stents that gradually dissolve after vessel healing
• Impella-assisted angioplasty for mechanical circulatory support during high-risk interventions
• Rotational atherectomy (Rotablator) for removing heavily calcified coronary plaques
• Shockwave intravascular lithotripsy for breaking calcified blockages in coronary arteries
• Endovascular stent graft placement for aortic aneurysm repair
• Carotid angioplasty and stenting for prevention and treatment of stroke-causing carotid artery disease
