Abstract
Coronary calcification negatively affects the safety and effectiveness of percutaneous coronary intervention. There is a lack of randomized comparisons among different plaque modification techniques.
The aim of this study was to compare rotational atherectomy (RA), excimer laser coronary angioplasty (ELCA), and intravascular lithotripsy (IVL) for the treatment of patients with calcified coronary stenosis.
