Coronary Angioplasty, also called Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI), is a non-surgical procedure used to open blocked or narrowed coronary arteries. It helps restore proper blood flow to the heart muscle, reduces chest pain (angina), and prevents heart attacks. The procedure involves inserting a balloon-tipped catheter to widen the artery and often placing a stent to keep it open.
