Intravascular ultrasound vs angiography-guided drug-coated balloon angioplasty: the ULTIMATE III trial
13 Jun 2024
The results of this study show that IVUS guidance is associated with less late lumen loss compared to angiography guidance in HBR patients undergoing DCB angioplasty.

Influence of pathophysiological patterns of coronary artery disease on immediate percutaneous coronary intervention outcomes
28 May 2024
This study demonstrated, for the first time, that PPG - an index to characterize focal vs. diffuse disease - can predict optimal functional revascularization outcomes (post-PCI FFR ≥ 0.88) more accurately than FFR alone.

Migration of the stent in the left main stem due to poor lesion preparation
23 May 2024
Poor lesion preparation is an important factor contributing to serious complications in PCI of heavily calcified lesions. We present a case of a stent loss in a left main coronary artery followed by its successful retrieval.

Role of PCI in the contemporary management of patients with angina and coronary disease
17 May 2024 – From EuroPCR 2024
This session aims to generate awareness about the distinct phenotypes of coronary artery disease (focal, diffuse, serial) that can be identified through contemporary physiological tools, and the implications of these phenotypes on achieving successful functional PCI results. Participants will also discuss the considerations around using PCI...
Management of PCI complications - Part 2
17 May 2024 – From EuroPCR 2024
This session focuses on the management of various PCI complications, including iatrogenic dissection after diagnostic coronary angiography, sinus node artery occlusion, a stuck 6F guide in the axillary artery, and the retrieval of a broken balloon. The session features a series of case presentations and discussions,...
Other coronary interventions: SSO2, angioPy & more
16 May 2024 – From EuroPCR 2024
This session showcases a diverse array of innovative coronary interventions and technologies, including the use of super-saturated oxygen therapy in STEMI, the validation of intracoronary flow velocity measurement, the application of laser and optics-based coronary intravascular lithotripsy, and the development of contrast-free and X-ray-free PCI techniques....
ANOCA/INOCA: when angiography is not enough to reach a diagnosis
16 May 2024 – From EuroPCR 2024
This session provides practical knowledge on the diagnosis and management of patients with ANOCA/INOCA (Angina with Non-Obstructive Coronary Arteries/Ischemia with Non-Obstructive Coronary Arteries). It covers the evaluation of microvascular and vasomotor disorders in patients with non-obstructive coronary arteries, and the causes and management of patients with...
Management of PCI complications - Part 1
16 May 2024 – From EuroPCR 2024
This session comprises a series of selected EuroPCR 2024 Clinical Case submissions, focusing on the management of various PCI complications. Participants will explore cases involving coronary physiology challenges, iatrogenic compressive coronary intramural hematoma, misbehaving stents, catheter-induced dissections, and device malfunctions, along with the corresponding bailout techniques...
New frontiers in coronary physiology and imaging
