Answer:
The name of the procedure is balloon angioplasty. The procedure is performed when there is a blockage in the artery mainly due to the deposition of fat molecules.
In this procedure, first the doctor injects a dye through a catheter in the blood which helps in finding the blocked artery on the X-ray machine. Then a balloon attached on a device is inserted in that area of artery where plague is present.
Once the device reaches the blockage area it gets inflated which flattens the plaque in the walls of the artery. Therefore balloon angioplasty is the procedure in which a catheter is inserted into her blocked artery and a balloon is inflated to flatten the plaque in the walls of the artery.
