New Methods and Technologies in Angiography
Three-dimensional imaging capable of CT scanning and detecting the location of cancer to facilitate easy targeting high-resolution angiography devices with 3D capabilities have begun to be used.
Many methods and technological innovations have emerged for vessel opening with angiography. The most important of these relate to the opening of completely occluded vessels. This is achieved with atherectomy, which can operate with many different techniques. With these innovations, many total occlusions that were previously impossible to open have become treatable.

As with drug-coated balloons, a special drug is placed on the stent. This drug reduces the likelihood of the vessel re-narrowing or occluding in the long term.
