DCB in diffuse disease and small vessels: LIVE Educational Case from National University Heart Centre - Singapore
Anchorperson:
M. Haude
Spokesperson:
W. A. Wan Ahmad
Summary
This educational session focuses on the application of drug-coated balloons (DCB) in the management of diffuse coronary disease and small vessel pathology. It guides clinicians in identifying suitable lesion subsets, optimizing lesion preparation using advanced imaging and physiological assessments, and determining the appropriate timing to transition to stenting to ensure optimal patient outcomes.
Learning Objectives
- To identify lesion subsets of diffuse disease suitable for DCB
- To learn optimal lesion preparation using imaging and physiology
- To understand when to switch to stenting
