Reshaping what's possible in complex PCI with advanced sirolimus technology
21 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
Focused on advancing complex PCI, this session explores strategies to minimise metal use through advanced sirolimus technologies and drug-coated balloon (DCB) therapies. It highlights the biological and pharmacokinetic characteristics of DCBs, key device design considerations, and practical approaches to less-metal PCI. Clinical cases illustrate challenges such...
Novel indications for DCB
21 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
This session reviews emerging clinical applications for drug-coated balloons (DCB) beyond traditional indications. It covers outcomes in venous stenosis, aorto-ostial lesions, and coronary bifurcation disease, comparing DCB strategies with drug-eluting stents and highlighting recent clinical trial findings.
Transforming PCI: mastering the implementation of drug-eluting balloons
22 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
This EuroPCR 2025 session provides a comprehensive overview of drug-eluting balloons (DEBs) and their growing role in percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Gain a clear understanding of the clinical evidence and rationale supporting DEBs, including how these devices minimize metal implantation and effectively treat both standard and...
