This PCR Seminar in Delhi, India, brought together 483 participants to discuss about best practices in interventional cardiology. PCR facilitators Salvatore Brugaletta and Dejan Milasinovic were joined by local experts Ashok Seth and Sengottuvelu Gunasekaran for a high-level educational exchange.

Participants were immersed in a substantive and highly educational programme designed to enhance their management of left main disease. Key areas of focus included the role of imaging, the selection of appropriate devices and strategies for treating calcified lesions, and best practices in the context of acute coronary syndrome. The main topics centred on left main and calcified lesions, with acute MI as a key sub-topic. A step-by-step reasoning approach and interactive case discussions encouraged active participation and a fruitful exchange of clinical perspectives.
