BackgroundVascular tortuosity in the right subclavian artery (RSA) region may impede guidewire advancement during right upper limb access for coronary angiography. AimsTo develop a morphology-based classification of guidewire configurations in the RSA region and evaluate their association with difficulty in guidewire manipulation. MethodsData were collected from patients who underwent coronary angiography via the right upper limb at the Geriatric Cardiovascular Center of Beijing Anzhen Hospita...
