Towards a personalised coronary intervention with CT-guided robotic-assisted PCI
17 May 2022 – From EuroPCR 2022
This EuroPCR 2022 session aims to show how coronary CT angiography can help in pre-procedural planning and guidance of PCI to achieve the best patient outcomes. It also explores the role of robotic-assisted PCI in improving procedural accuracy, radiation safety, and ergonomics within the cathlab. Finally, it demonstrates how...

DCB and the possibility of a clean vessel
17 May 2022 – From EuroPCR 2022
This EuroPCR 2022 session aims to show, based on real-life cases, that even complex coronary disease can be treated without the need for permanent coronary stents. Learn how to prepare the vessel, deliver the therapy, and assess immediate outcomes after "DCB-alone" PCI, discuss de novo, small vessels, and...

Long-term clinical impact of contrast-associated acute kidney injury following PCI: an ADAPT-DES sub-study
21 Apr 2022
The recently published ADAPT-DES sub-study addressed the question of early and long-term impact of contrast-associated acute kidney injury (CA-AKI) on net adverse clinical events. In addition, the authors defined risk factors for the development of CA-AKI in all-comers using contemporary PCI techniques.
