Orbital atherectomy, a versatile tool in managing complex scenarios of vessel calcification
17 May 2023 – From EuroPCR 2023
The aim of this session is to address the question of how to optimise outcomes for high-risk patients by analyzing two real-life cases for discussion: a distal calcified left main trifurcation and a high-risk PCI with orbital atherectomy.
Latest trends in PCI - Stentless PCI and the role of sustained limus release
17 May 2023 – From EuroPCR 2023
Explore the latest trends in percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in this session, focusing on stentless PCI and the role of sustained limus release technology. Join the discussion on how sustained limus release can expand the indications for drug-eluting balloons (DEB) and minimize the use of metal...
