EROSION III: A Randomized Trial of OCT-Guided Intervention in STEMI Patients With Early Infarct Artery Patency
04 Nov 2021
Elad Asher reviews the EROSION III trial, presented by Haibo Jia, which studied whether OCT guidance compared with angiographic guidance only is associated with lower stent rate implantation during pPCI in STEMI patients with non-obstructive stenosis.
