Impact of imaging in treatment of bifurcation lesions - Part 2

Facilitators: G. Sardella, K. Punamiya

Summary

Focus on the impact of advanced imaging in treating bifurcation lesions with this session. It covers the use of IVUS and OCT to optimize side branch protection, manage complex lesions in elderly symptomatic patients, and elucidate nuanced techniques such as the Szabo method, providing critical guidance for precision PCI in bifurcation disease.

Presentations available when logged in:

  • IVUS to help RDA ostium treatment jailed balloon use to avoid side branch compromise
  • Severely symptomatic octogenarian: how should I treat?
  • Nuances of Szabo technique in a Medina 010 lesion unravelled by optical coherence tomography
  • Doubtful angiographic image in restenosis of the circumflex ostium: does the OCT gives us the key?
