peer agreement (net): +1the axis of the vessel needs at least to be passable Explanation: or 'the lumen of the vessel' (more logical, less literally). By the way: passable: either to instruments (the balloon and stent) or to contrast media. Greetings, Nikolaus |

23 mins confidence:
the lumen of the vessel needs to be at least patent Explanation: This means that a test injection of dye will pass through the arterial lesion to the other side. This is quantified in Angioplasty terms as having at least a "TIMI-2 degree of patency", whereas "TIMI-3" is total occlussion, and "TIMI-1" is easy passage of the dye through the occlusion.
