Summary

Explore advanced techniques and strategic approaches in chronic total occlusion (CTO) interventions, including novel methods for severely calcified lesions, bifurcation management, and complex anatomies such as right main CTOs. The session highlights epicardial collateral navigation, device synergy for calcified coronary disease, indigenous perforation techniques, and ultra-low contrast PCI methods, offering comprehensive insights for tackling CTO challenges.
