This session features selected EuroPCR 2024 clinical case submissions showcasing the use of imaging and physiology guidance during PCI. Cases cover topics such as managing cardiac arrest during PCI, virtual reality-guided PCI, low-contrast PCI in multivessel disease, and the comprehensive assessment of obstructive and non-obstructive coronary...
Acute coronary syndromes: keep an eye open for unusual presentations
17 May 2024 – From EuroPCR 2024
This session features selected EuroPCR 2024 clinical case submissions highlighting unusual presentations of acute coronary syndromes. Cases cover topics such as a "ring" completing the "crown", recurrent vasospastic angina culminating in STEMI, myocardial infarction of unusual cause, and primary PCI in dextrocardia. Discussions emphasize the importance...
TAVR in challenging anatomies
17 May 2024 – From EuroPCR 2024
This session focuses on navigating TAVR procedures in complex anatomical scenarios. It covers topics such as optimizing the position of a TAVR valve in a stentless bioprosthesis, managing an unexpected deep position of a TAVR implant, dealing with a completely radiolucent failing surgical bioprosthetic valve, and...

Cracking new horizons across all calcium morphologies
04 Oct 2024 – From AICT-AsiaPCR 2024
This session explores the challenges of treating calcified lesions during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Learn how calcium can impede stent deliverability and expansion, potentially leading to thrombosis and restenosis. Discover the innovative Shockwave IVL technology, which uses sonic pressure waves to fracture calcium without harming surrounding...
Agent of change: modern PCI with DCB
04 Oct 2024 – From AICT-AsiaPCR 2024
Discover the power of drug-coated balloon (DCB) technology in modern PCI. Understand the mechanism of action, including antiproliferative agents, drug transfer to the vessel wall, and effective inhibitory level and duration of vessel wall retention. Learn how IVUS can guide optimal lesion preparation, and explore the...
iFR-SWEDEHEART: iFR vs FFR-Guided Coronary Revascularisation
04 Nov 2021
Nicola Ryan reviews the iFR Swedeheart multicenter, randomized, controlled, open-label clinical trial using the Swedish Coronary Angiography and Angioplasty Registry (SCAAR) for enrolment randomisation and follow up. At one year follow up iFR guided revascularisation was shown to be non-inferior to FFR guided revascularisation, these results...
