CT and intracoronary imaging evaluation of coronary disease
21 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
This session focuses on advanced imaging modalities for evaluating coronary artery disease, including the clinical application of CT angiography and intracoronary imaging techniques like OCT and IVUS. Topics encompass barriers to OCT usage, the impact of plaque composition on PCI outcomes, advances in photon-counting CT technology,...
Challenges of multivessel disease in ACS
21 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
Dedicated to the challenges of multivessel disease in acute coronary syndrome (ACS), this session explores strategies to identify culprit versus non-culprit lesions and plan multivessel revascularisation using physiology, intravascular imaging, and artificial intelligence. It further discusses the timing considerations for revascularisation, whether ad-hoc or staged, illustrated...
Permanent pacing after TAVI
23 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
Explore predictors and mechanisms leading to permanent pacemaker implantation after TAVI. This session reviews electrophysiological intervals, atrial pacing markers, anatomical risk factors, and outcomes associated with new generation transcatheter heart valves.
Contemporary outcomes of PCI patients
22 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
Examine contemporary outcomes in PCI patients through a collection of studies addressing angiographic complication incidences, safety of same-day discharge post-complex PCI, age-related outcome impacts in TAVI patients, and comparative long-term antiplatelet strategies. The session also explores timing effects in routine versus off-hours PCI.
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.
Tough cases, smart imaging
20 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
This session showcases challenging cardiovascular cases where smart imaging techniques guide diagnosis and intervention. Highlights include innovative soft balloon angiography in complex patients, anatomical-physiological ischemic mismatch analysis, IVUS-guided evaluation of rare SVG stenosis, and the power of perspective in imaging interpretation.
