Angioplasty.Org Needs Your Help....
This independent educational website is not unlike your local educational television or radio station. While Angioplasty.Org receives some grants from companies who believe in its mission (and we gratefully thank those companies) we are also asking for supplementary contributions from our users in order to be able to continue providing this service to those who visit us over 80,000 times each month.

We've Been Around for a Decade
Angioplasty.Org was started in 1997, the 20th anniversary of coronary angioplasty, and was one of the first healthcare sites on the World Wide Web. Unlike the giant WebMDs of the internet, Angioplasty.Org has stayed small, focussed and non-commercial. Created and managed by one of the early pioneers of medical education for interventional cardiologists, Angioplasty.Org promotes the benefits of these minimally-invasive alternatives to open surgery, yet also does not shy away from publicizing potential problems with devices and therapies.

A Unique Forum
Angioplasty.Org is one of the only places on the internet, if not THE only place, where patients have aired their experiences with allergic reactions to drug-eluting stents. We are currently working with cardiologists to aid in a study of these reactions.
