CTO: imaging and devices

Session comprising selected EuroPCR 2021 Clinical Cases Presentations

Summary

Thanks to this session, learn how to recanalize a chronic total occlusion of the right coronary artery, how IVUS can facilitate and guide PCI to ostial left circumflex CTO, how hi-tech devices are also needed in calcified artery occlusions, and even more!

Learning Objectives

  • To learn how to recanalize a chronic total occlusion of the right coronary artery
  • To analyze an unusual case of chronic total occlusion
  • To note the remarkable evolution of the distal coronary vessel in chronic total occlusion
  • To appreciate how IVUS can facilitate and guide PCI to ostial left circumflex CTO
  • To verify why hi-tech devices are also needed in calcified artery occlusions
