Summary

Consult this session to discover compelling cases of PCI for ACS where OCT helped a lot, such as cocaine and ergotamine abuse-related STEMI, double lumen coronary artery with flap-like structure, and more!

Presentations available when logged in:

  • Cocaine and ergotamine abuse-related STEMI: fundamental role of intracoronary imaging
  • Beyond coronary angiography: integrating multiple imaging modalities in the acute setting
  • Clinical decision-making assisted by OCT guidance in ACS without critical coronary stenosis
  • Double lumen coronary artery with flap-like structure: unique OCT image after anticoagulant therapy for the occlusive thrombosis.
  • Simultaneous ST-elevation in inferior and precordial leads with an occluded non-wrapped LAD: a rare cause identified by IVUS and OCT
  • Multiple coronary plaque rupture masquerades as spontaneous coronary artery dissection
  • Serial OCT findings in young adult with ACS treated with antithrombotic therapy without stenting
