Calcified lesion of distal protected left main - LIVE case
22 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
An 85‑year‑old man with type 2 diabetes mellitus, hypertension, dyslipidemia, peripheral artery disease, COPD, and chronic kidney disease presented with CCS class II angina related to three‑vessel coronary artery disease. He had previously undergone hybrid revascularization, including PCI of the RCA ostium and CABG with LIMA...
Revascularisation in patients with multivessel disease and severe left ventricular impairment
21 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
This session focuses on revascularisation strategies for patients with multivessel coronary disease complicated by severe left ventricular impairment. It emphasizes patient selection criteria, the crucial role of the heart team in decision-making, and optimization of percutaneous revascularisation outcomes. The content includes comprehensive case presentations and discussions...
Insight from new evidence for complex PCI: value of imaging (CHIP IVUS) and left ventricular support (CHIP BCIS 3)
21 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
This session reviews the impact of recent evidence on complex PCI, highlighting the value of intracoronary imaging (CHIP IVUS trial) and left ventricular assist devices (CHIP BCIS 3 trial). Through case discussions, participants reflect on how these innovations influence daily clinical practice and enhance procedural planning...
Asymptomatic high-risk patients: can CT coronary angiography improve our practice?
21 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
This session examines the role of cardiac computed tomography (CT) coronary angiography in improving clinical practice for asymptomatic high-risk patients. It discusses detection of vulnerable plaque features, the importance of inflammation and physiology in risk assessment, and explores individualized treatment pathways including PCI, medical therapy, or...
Updates on percutaneous treatment of pulmonary embolism
22 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
Stay abreast of the latest advances in percutaneous treatment of pulmonary embolism. This session covers clinical outcomes with novel vacuum thrombectomy devices, mechanical thrombectomy registries, catheter-directed therapies in intermediate-high risk PE, and profiles of subacute PE interventions to inform optimal treatment strategies.
Unraveling the full potential of computed tomography
22 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
Delve into the expanding potential of computed tomography in cardiology. This session highlights high-risk plaque morphology, associations with invasive physiology, AI-powered plaque quantification, and advanced CT analyses predicting cardiac events.
Choices, choices: a global perspective on multiple modalities for calcium modification
21 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
Gain a global perspective on multiple modalities for calcium modification in coronary interventions. This session reviews comparative analyses of orbital, shockwave, rotational atherectomy, and cutting balloons, explores evolving rotational atherectomy practices in the era of intravascular lithotripsy, and presents preliminary data from international registries on coronary...
Optimising CTO outcomes by lesion selection
21 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
Optimize chronic total occlusion (CTO) PCI outcomes through lesion selection strategies. This session reviews coronary calcium patterns via CT, target vessel considerations, distal vessel remodeling, imaging-guided versus conventional approaches, and complex lesion cases.
