Is DCB the new gold standard for side branch treatment in bifurcation?
21 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
This session explores the emerging role of drug-coated balloons (DCB) as a potential new standard for side branch treatment in bifurcation lesions. It focuses on selecting appropriate indications, optimal vessel preparation and delivery timing, and executing stepwise DCB strategies versus hybrid approaches to maximize clinical outcomes.
All you need to know of DAPT in ACS
21 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
This session provides an in-depth review of dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) in acute coronary syndrome (ACS), focusing on strategies for safe de-escalation and P2Y12 inhibitor monotherapy to reduce bleeding risk without compromising ischemic protection. It also covers optimizing antithrombotic therapy in patients on oral anticoagulation and...
Innovative strategy in ACS
20 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
Focusing on innovative strategies in acute coronary syndrome (ACS), this session reviews recent advances including drug-coated balloons in STEMI, early discharge safety guided by microcirculatory resistance indices, intravascular lithotripsy for coronary calcification in ACS, and novel stenting protocols demonstrated in randomized trials, providing a comprehensive update...
PCI of left main stenosis: LIVE Educational Case from Sant'Andrea University Hospital - Rome, Italy
19 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
This live educational case from Sant'Andrea University Hospital in Rome provides a comprehensive assessment and management approach to complex left main stenosis.

Two-stent techniques for non-left main true bifurcation lesions
22 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
Enhance your skills in two-stent techniques for non-left main true bifurcation lesions. This session covers patient and lesion assessment, PCI procedural steps, and common pitfalls to avoid, aiming to improve procedural success in complex coronary anatomies.
Large thrombus burden: contemporary solutions
21 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
This session presents contemporary strategies for managing large thrombus burden in STEMI patients. Learn from expert cases demonstrating multiple effective approaches including modified manual thrombus aspiration guided by intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) and streamlined primary PCI techniques, essential for optimizing outcomes in complex thrombotic scenarios.
Adressing complex anatomy in STEMI
20 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
Address anatomical complexities in STEMI management through cases involving bilateral compromised coronary ostia due to aortic dissection, rare challenging STEMI presentations, coronary steal phenomena, diffuse atherosclerotic dissections in young patients, and aneurysmal coronary artery angioplasty in IgG4-related disease.
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.
