The authors present a case of PCI for left main trunk bifurcation divided by a flap-like structure in a 67-year-old man suffering from effort angina, in which they successfully used a novel tracking technique by modifying the reverse controlled antegrade and retrograde tracking (CART), which they called...

The authors present a case of percutaneous coronary intervention for bifurcation lesion in a 73-year-old man suffering from effort angina, in which they successfully performed double kissing crush stenting using optical coherence tomography.

In OCT-guided PCI, observing an aorto-ostial lesion is impossible as it requires blood clearance, and the material of the guiding catheter used is not near-infrared transparent. Using a Telescope®-guiding extension catheter, the authors successfully acquired an OCT image throughout the soft polymer tip and the relatively wide...

Consult this session on intracoronary imaging for complex stenting to learn how to recognise image findings which may impact on stent strategy and results, how to react to imaging for complex stent optimisation and how to optimally guide interventions during bailout situations.
