Summary

This session examines the growing global experience in the treatment of calcified coronary lesions, bringing together updated clinical evidence and real-world practice.

Recent data are discussed alongside insights from high-volume operators to show how calcium modification strategies are evolving and being integrated into contemporary PCI workflows.

By combining trial results, practical case experience, and emerging treatment algorithms, the discussion highlights how lesion preparation, procedural planning, and decision-making continue to improve in daily practice when managing complex calcified disease.

Learning Objectives

  • To present updated global clinical data supporting safety and efficacy of Shockwave intravascular lithotripsy
  • To provide insights from high-volume intravascular lithotripsy users on practical techniques, case selection and workflow
  • To learn global calcium management algorithm
