Summary

Explore the critical role of imaging in acute coronary syndrome (ACS) from non-invasive coronary CT angiography to invasive intracoronary imaging modalities. This session covers detection of culprit lesions, diagnostic strategies, and PCI optimization through real-world case examples.

Learning Objectives

  • To understand the role of coronary CT angiography in the ACS diagnostics 
  • To learn how to implement intravascular imaging in identifying culprit lesion 
  • To discuss the added value of intracoronary imaging in PCI optimisation during ACS
