How to obtain the best PCI results in calcified lesions

Session comprising selected EuroPCR 2024 Clinical Case submissions

Facilitators: F. Aminfar, A. Rahman, . Ahmad Z

Summary

This session features selected clinical case submissions that explore various strategies and techniques for achieving optimal PCI outcomes in patients with calcified coronary lesions. Participants will learn about plaque modification approaches, the use of IVUS guidance, and innovative ways to overcome the challenges posed by heavily calcified lesions, including in-stent restenosis. The interactive format allows for discussions and sharing of practical experiences.
