  • Balloon inflated with stent
  • Balloon-tipped catheter.
  • Diagram of a balloon catheter
  • A [[coronary angiogram]] (an X-ray with radio-opaque contrast in the coronary arteries) that shows the left [[coronary circulation]]. The distal [[left main coronary artery]] (LMCA) is in the left upper quadrant of the image. Its main branches (also visible) are the [[left circumflex artery]] (LCX), which courses top-to-bottom initially and then toward the centre-bottom, and the [[left anterior descending]] (LAD) artery, which courses from left-to-right on the image and then courses down the middle of the image to project underneath the distal LCX. The LAD, as is usual, has two large diagonal branches, which arise at the centre-top of the image and course toward the centre-right of the image.

angioplasty         
¦ noun (plural angioplasties) Medicine surgical repair or unblocking of a blood vessel, especially a coronary artery.
balloon angioplasty         
¦ noun Medicine surgical widening of a blood vessel by means of a balloon catheter.
Balloon pulmonary angioplasty         
  • Computed tomograph of pulmonary vessels. Pulmonary emboli can be classified according to level along the arterial tree.
Balloon pulmonary angioplasty (BPA) is an emerging minimally invasive procedure to treat chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) in people who are not suitable for pulmonary thromboendarterectomy (PTE) or still have residual pulmonary hypertension and areas of narrowing in the pulmonary arterial tree following previous PTE.

Angioplasty

Angioplasty, also known as balloon angioplasty and percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA), is a minimally invasive endovascular procedure used to widen narrowed or obstructed arteries or veins, typically to treat arterial atherosclerosis. A deflated balloon attached to a catheter (a balloon catheter) is passed over a guide-wire into the narrowed vessel and then inflated to a fixed size. The balloon forces expansion of the blood vessel and the surrounding muscular wall, allowing an improved blood flow. A stent may be inserted at the time of ballooning to ensure the vessel remains open, and the balloon is then deflated and withdrawn. Angioplasty has come to include all manner of vascular interventions that are typically performed percutaneously.

The word is composed of the combining forms of the Greek words ἀγγεῖον angeîon "vessel" or "cavity" (of the human body) and πλάσσω plássō "form" or "mould".
