angioplasty

My uncle recently had angioplasty done..我的叔叔最近做了血管成形术。

Simply put, angioplasty DOES offer better results within the first 3 years after the operation..简单的说，血管成形术在术后的最初3年确实可以产生很好的效果。

A large study found that among patients admitted to the hospital for a heart attack, women were far less likely than men to get angiography to find vessel blockages or angioplasty to clear them..这项研究发现，在因心脏病发作而住院的病人中，女性患者接受血管造影术及血管修复术的机率远低于男性患者。
