Abstract:
A systematic approach incorporating several discrete technical maneuvers is described that facilitates localization of the intramyocardial left anterior descending coronary artery. These simple maneuvers reliably afford localization of the initially hidden intramyocardial vessel and are easily incorporated into one's technical armamentarium.
