Aspirin desensitization in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention: a survey of current practice.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Multi-slice computed tomography (MSCT) can be used to visualize the anatomy of the coronary venous system (CVS). A pre-procedural evaluation of target veins is a very important element of cardiac resynchronization. Thus, the quality of visualization of the CVS is of great importance. The aim of this study wa...
