FACTORS ASSOCIATED WITH HIGH PATIENT RADIATION DOSE DURING CHRONIC TOTAL OCCLUSION PERCUTANEOUS CORONARY INTERVENTION: INSIGHTS FROM A CONTEMPORARY MULTICENTER REGISTRY

2016

High patient radiation dose during chronic total occlusion (CTO) percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) may lead to procedural failure and radiation skin injury. We examined the association between several clinical and angiographic variables on patient air kerma (AK) radiation dose among 748
