Drug Coated Balloon Only vs Drug Eluting Stent Angioplasty
Drug coated balloon (DCB) is a relatively new technology which allows the treatment of coronary artery disease without permanent implantation of a metallic scaffold (stent) in the coronary artery. It is recommended by international guidelines for the treatment of in-stent restenosis (i.e. when a previously implanted stent in the coronary …
