rechanneling of the distal bed Explanation: A description of arterial rechanneling is found at: https://www.docdoc.com/medical-information/procedures/rechan... The process of rechanneling an artery and other procedures used to treat blocked or narrowed blood vessels are performed on patients whose blood vessels have become clogged due to plaque buildup. Plaque tends to build up, especially in the medium and large arteries, depending on the patient's age, lifestyle, and hereditary factors. Plaque buildup results in a disorder called atherosclerosis, in which the arteries harden. When this affects the carotid arteries, it results in another condition called carotid stenosis or carotid artery disease, which may cause carotid artery pain and other symptoms. ... After rechanneling the artery, blood flow to the brain is expected to improve. This can reduce the patient’s risk of suffering from a stroke. https://www.docdoc.com/medical-information/procedures/rechan... The distal bed refers to the atheroma plaque. https://www.docdoc.com/medical-information/procedures/rechanneling-of-artery |

recanalization of the distal vascular bed Explanation: "Recanalization" is the term to use here (recanalisation for British E) -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 9 hrs (2022-01-19 09:31:20 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Hi David: You are right in that collateral flow is most likely meant here (the interventional cardiologist got confused for a moment...hehe); however, that is not what the text says. I think you should translate in line with the text and write a note for the client. In any case, I meant to imply that "rechanneling" is not a "terminus technicus". |

reopening of the downstream vascular bed Explanation: Might be an option to stay close to "recanalization" while avoiding this term which technically usually refers to a procedure or event that reopens a vessel. If you are not obliged to be overly literal, you may also consider "reperfusion". |
