Solution
The correct option is B Angioplasty
The location of blood clot is discovered by a coronary angiogram. Once its location is fixed, clot is removed by a procedure called angioplasty. In this procedure a small puncture in a leg or arm artery is made through which a clogged artery is opened by inflating a tiny balloon in it.
