With the collaboration of CVIT (Japanese Association of Cardiovascular Intervention and Therapeutics) and Scottish Cardiac Society and Working Group on Invasive and Interventional Cardiology, Croatian Cardiac Society
Summary
Highlighting the critical role of intravascular imaging in PCI, this session explores its utility in procedural planning, optimization of outcomes, and identification and management of complications. Through international case studies, it demonstrates how imaging enhances understanding beyond angiography alone and facilitates tailored, effective interventions.
