Choices, choices: a global perspective on multiple modalities for calcium modification

Facilitators: C. Cosgrove, R. Costa

Summary

Gain a global perspective on multiple modalities for calcium modification in coronary interventions. This session reviews comparative analyses of orbital, shockwave, rotational atherectomy, and cutting balloons, explores evolving rotational atherectomy practices in the era of intravascular lithotripsy, and presents preliminary data from international registries on coronary lithotripsy.

Presentations available when logged in:

  • Orbital, shockwave, rotational atherectomy, and cutting balloon in calcified lesions: SCAAR-analysis
  • Rotational atherectomy vs. modified balloons for calcified nodules: a PREPARE-CALC sub-analysis
  • The use of rotational atherectomy in Australia: evolving practices in the era of intravascular lithotripsy
  • Coronary lithotripsy in calcified lesions: preliminary results from the GISE Shockcalcium registry
