Summary

This is a randomised controlled trial aimed to demonstrate the effect of cardiac extracorporeal shock wave therapy (CSWT) on the angiogenesis effect of myocardium by determining myocardial perfusion and left ventricular function in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) when measured by cardiac MRI before and after the treatment.

Conditions

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Extracorporeal shock wave therapy

Extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) delivers acoustic energy transmitted through liquid medium to internal body tissues. The intervention group will receive a total of 9 ESWT treatment sessions and 200 shocks will be applied to each ischaemic zone of myocardium for 3 times a week on the three weeks that the patients receive ESWT.
