Percutaneous coronary intervention of saphenous vein grafts is associated with increased radiation exposure in patients with non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction
PCI of SVGs in NSTEMI patients moderately increases radiation exposure compared to PCI of native coronary arteries, whereas PCI of native coronary arteries does not significantly elevate radiation exposure risk in this patient population.
