My approach for a calcified bifurcation lesion
20 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
This session provides a comprehensive approach to managing calcified bifurcation lesions. Learn how to interpret angiographic and intravascular imaging, plan interventions with appropriate devices for simplicity and safety, and evaluate final results to understand their clinical impact through real cases.
Contemporary challenges in acute coronary syndromes
20 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
Examine contemporary challenges in acute coronary syndromes (ACS) through recent trials and studies. Topics include long-term outcomes of deferred stenting, thrombectomy techniques, PCI in cardiogenic shock, and revascularisation strategies, providing a comprehensive update for clinical practice.
How imaging can help us in recognising the problem and identifying the solution?
20 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
This session delves into the pivotal role of imaging in the cath lab for identifying rare and complex coronary artery conditions. Explore cases ranging from honeycomb coronary artery to acute coronary syndrome guided by intravascular imaging, and learn how reflected light and calcium changes help diagnose...
Best companion's cases on imaging for calcified lesions
20 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
Join this session to explore cutting-edge imaging-guided strategies for treating calcified coronary lesions. Featuring OCT guidance, CT density analysis, and innovative zero-contrast PCI approaches including lithotripsy, this session highlights novel and ultra-low contrast interventions tailored for complex calcified cases and kidney failure patients.
Benefits of IVUS plus near-infrared spectroscopy in detecting and managing vulnerable plaques
21 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
At EuroPCR 2025, Nilesh Pareek and Thomas Keeble discuss the clinical value and future potential of NIRS IVUS, a dual-modality imaging system developed by Nipro that combines intravascular ultrasound with near-infrared spectroscopy.
The Makoto™ system and Dualpro™ catheter allow real-time identification of lipid-rich plaques by providing both...

21 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
Nicola Ryan and Flavio Ribichini explore the complexities of calcified left main stem disease, emphasizing the critical role of intracoronary imaging in improving patient outcomes. They discuss the practical use of mechanical circulatory support and debate stenting strategies, offering expert insights on when single or dual...
How to implement the diagnosis of INOCA in everyday practice?
20 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
In this exchange, Vijay Kunadian and Javier Escaned explore the real-world implementation of INOCA (Ischemia with Non-Obstructive Coronary Arteries) and ANOCA (Angina with Non-Obstructive Coronary Arteries) diagnostic pathways. Drawing on the 2024 CCS (Chronic Coronary Syndromes) guidelines, and the EAPCI consensus document, they discuss why these...

Calcium is not a rocket science
07 May 2025
We present the case of an 83-year-old man admitted with chronic coronary syndrome.
Coronary angiography revealed critical long calcified LAD stenosis. Complex PCI with different plaque modification techniques and intravascular imaging guiding was necessary to reach the success.
