The 5-year projection on the future of interventional cardiology.
Interventional cardiology has revolutionized modern cardiovascular care not only with the introduction of new approaches to the treatment of coronary artery disease, but also with the development of new invasive approaches to electrophysiologic procedures and the treatment of noncoronary vascular beds. This revolution continues to gather speed. Creative solutions continue to be proposed, evaluated, and then brought to the patient care arena. Issues remain, but these identify opportunities for continuing improvement.
