Summary
Tune in to this session to discover how reducing reliance on contrast opacification enhances procedural safety and enables more thorough revascularization in complex PCI scenarios. Learn that ultra-low contrast (ULC) PCI encompasses various interventional skills and specialized tools, many already familiar to interventional cardiologists. Embrace a mindset shift, starting with applying ULC PCI principles in simple cases and progressing to complex interventions.
Learning Objectives
- To understand how ultra-low contrast (ULC) PCI contributes to improve safety and quality of revascularisation of PCI procedures, particularly in complex and high-risk scenarios
- To learn specific ways of using intra-coronary imaging and physiology, as well as dedicated tools like Dynamic Coronary Roadmap, to perform PCI without contrast administration
- To share the principles of PCI through recorded cases to better understand how they work in practice
