Summary

This session highlights advancements in managing coronary calcified lesions through intravascular lithotripsy using the Shockwave system. It discusses the unique mechanism of action for different calcium morphologies, reviews the latest clinical data, and addresses complex scenarios including diffuse lesions and challenging nodular or eccentric calcium deposits, supported by illustrative case examples.
