Calcified bifurcation lesion - LIVE case
22 Sep 2023 – From AICT-AsiaPCR 2023
A 59-year-old female patient with type 2 DM, dyslipidaemia, hypothyroidism and impaired LV function (39%) presented with multivessel disease. RCA PCI was performed 3 days ago.
The prox and mid LAD showed a severe calcified lesion including the diagonal. The lesion was prepared using a 1.25 Rotaglide™ ('single-person'...

Revolutionising coronary calcium treatment: unleashing the potential of intravascular lithotripsy
21 Sep 2023 – From AICT-AsiaPCR 2023
Over the last five years, we have learned that there is a new tool for treating calcium, the greatest enemy of interventional cardiology, which can take various forms: intravascular lithotripsy. In this session, look at how to master this technique in different scenarios, from eccentric calcified...
A hybrid approach in complex PCI: can DES and DCB be complementary?
21 Sep 2023 – From AICT-AsiaPCR 2023
Watch this case-based session to follow discussion about how to choose between DES & DCB, how both can be complementary in diffuse disease as well as in complex PCI, and how physiology and imaging can help guiding PCI, and follow a patient's treatment live.

When transfemoral TAVI is not an option: rethinking alternative access strategies
18 Jun 2026
In this article, Ulrich Schäfer explores the evolving landscape of access strategies in transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI). While the transfemoral approach remains the gold standard, a significant proportion of patients are not suitable due to peripheral vascular disease or anatomical constraints.
Drawing on clinical evidence and...
