First seen May 02, 2026 · Last updated May 02, 2026
Summary
This study compares two procedures—orbital atherectomy and intravascular lithotripsy—for treating hardened calcium deposits in heart arteries. About 50 adults with coronary artery disease will be randomly assigned to one of the two techniques before getting a stent. The goal is to see which method helps the stent expand better and leads to fewer complications.
