NIRS-guided PCI: beyond calcium to precision PCI
11 Dec 2025 – From GulfPCR-GIM 2025
This session explores how near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) is redefining PCI by revealing what angiography cannot see. By identifying lipid-rich and vulnerable plaques, NIRS helps anticipate procedural risk and refine decision-making before stent implantation. The session shows how plaque composition, rather than calcium alone, can guide lesion...
