Transesophageal Doppler echocardiography can noninvasively evaluate the functional results of left anterior descending coronary artery angioplasty. Coronary flow reserve assessed by this technique is significantly increased only in those patients with less severe residual stenosis as detected by intravascular ultrasound, thus allowing a noninvasive assessment of the results of left anterior coronary artery angioplasty.

D003326 Coronary Circulation The circulation of blood through the CORONARY VESSELS of the HEART. Circulation, Coronary
D003327 Coronary Disease An imbalance between myocardial functional requirements and the capacity of the CORONARY VESSELS to supply sufficient blood flow. It is a form of MYOCARDIAL ISCHEMIA (insufficient blood supply to the heart muscle) caused by a decreased capacity of the coronary vessels.
