Intravascular Lithoplasty: Advanced Technology for Clear Arteries

Intravascular Lithoplasty (IVL) is a cutting-edge technique used to treat calcified coronary artery disease. This procedure uses sonic waves to break down calcified plaques in arteries, improving blood flow. At Shri Krishnasai Clinic, we utilize IVL for a safe and effective treatment with minimal discomfort. It’s an advanced solution for patients with difficult-to-treat blockages.

Our team of experts ensures precision during the IVL procedure to provide optimal outcomes. We work with state-of-the-art equipment and techniques to restore heart health and improve blood circulation. IVL offers an effective approach for clearing arterial blockages, ultimately enhancing your quality of life.

What is Intravascular Lithoplasty (IVL), and how does it treat calcified coronary artery disease?

Intravascular Lithoplasty (IVL) is an advanced procedure used to treat calcified coronary artery disease, which occurs when calcium builds up in the artery walls, leading to narrowing and hardening of the vessels.

01

What is Intravascular Lithoplasty (IVL)?

IVL is a minimally invasive procedure that uses controlled shock waves delivered through a catheter to break up hardened calcium deposits in the arteries.

02

How does IVL work?

The IVL catheter, which contains a balloon with a shockwave generator, is inserted into the artery. Once in place, the shockwaves are activated to break apart the calcium, allowing for easier stent placement or other interventions.

03

Why is IVL effective for calcified arteries?

Calcified plaque is difficult to treat using traditional methods like balloon angioplasty because the stiffness of the calcium resists the pressure from the balloon. IVL’s shockwaves target the calcium directly, making it easier to treat calcified lesions.

04

What benefits does IVL offer?

IVL can improve blood flow by breaking up hard calcium deposits, reducing the risk of restenosis (re-narrowing of the artery), and allowing for better outcomes in patients with severe coronary artery disease.

05

Is IVL safe?

Yes, IVL is considered a safe procedure, with minimal risks. It provides a targeted approach to treating calcified coronary artery disease with lower complications compared to traditional methods.

Intravascular Lithoplasty (IVL) offers a revolutionary way to treat calcified coronary artery disease by breaking down hard calcium deposits with precision.
