Angioplasty is a procedure where a balloon is used to open an artery that has become narrowed or blocked by deposits in the wall. The cardiologist inserts a catheter (tube) through either the groin or wrist up to the coronary (heart) arteries. A small metal stent is then permanently placed in the artery to help keep the artery open and relieve your symptoms.
