Assessing coronaries in ACS with intracoronary imaging

Session comprising selected EuroPCR 2026 clinical cases submissions

Moderator: T. Johnson

Summary

This session highlights the critical role of intracoronary imaging in evaluating acute coronary syndromes (ACS). It discusses the management of complex lesion morphologies involving calcium and thrombus, the diagnostic power of OCT in decision-making, challenges beyond angiography in right coronary artery pathology, and the identification of hidden culprit lesions, emphasizing the added value of intravascular imaging in ACS management.

Presentations available when logged in:

  • OCT as a game changer in ACS: two clinical cases, two opposite decisions
  • Understanding complex right coronary artery pathology in ACS: when angiography is not enough
  • Acute coronary syndrome in a young male: a diagnostic challenge beyond atherosclerosis
  • Uncovering hidden ACS culprits: the role of intravascular imaging
  • Where is the culprit? An OCT case of multiple plaque instabilisation
