Intracoronary imaging insights in ACS

Session comprising selected EuroPCR 2026 abstract submissions

Moderators: J. Rymer, S. Mehta

Speakers: F. Groenland, L. Wang, Y. Yang, K. Karwat, L. Mariani

Summary

Discover how intracoronary imaging advances understanding and management of acute coronary syndromes (ACS). This session explores high-definition intravascular ultrasound for PCI guidance, novel predictive metrics, and the impact of emerging factors like microplastics on plaque instability, alongside pathophysiological insights into layered plaques and coronary ectasia in STEMI patients.

Presentations available when logged in:

Primary percutaneous coronary intervention guided by high-definition intravascular ultrasound
Predicting functional significance of non-culprit lesions in acute STEMI using ultrasonic flow ratio (IVUS-FFR)
Micro and nanoplastics and optical coherence tomography-defined plaque instability in ACS
A dense fibrin network and higher peak thrombin generation favour layered culprit plaque formation
Coronary ectasia in patients with STEMI: the size matters
