used lasers for the first time in the United states to remove plaque blocking the flow of blood through coronary James the principal invest said in an interview wednesday that team was using the laser technique As an experimental adjunct to coronary bypass surgery to increase blood flow through a larger area of the coronary arteries than would otherwise be the coronary arteries Are those that nourish the heart damage due to arteriosclerosis leads to heart Livesay said his team had received Permis Sion from the Federal food and drug administration to use a handheld Carbon dioxide laser developed by directed Energy of on 20 patients Over two since the team at the Texas heart Institute has used the laser to remove plaque from six arteries in three five of the six arteries remain open and Livesay plaques Are accumulations of fatty deposits in artery if the plaques Are Large they obstruct the flow of blood and Lead to the formation of clots and to the Onset of painful it is too Early to know How successful the technique will prove to earlier attempts in using a different kind of were largely Livesay said he did not expect the laser technique to become a substitute for Cor

patients include those who have diffuse arteriosclerotic damage to their coronary arte in these the laser can remove plaques in arteries that Are too Small to be bypassed by the conventional surgery it can also remove Large plaques that surgeons would otherwise have to excise with their fingers and during the the Carbon dioxide laser is inserted through an opening in a diseased coronary artery
