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.
CTO in special clinical scenarios
20 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
This session focuses on the unique challenges of performing CTO interventions in special clinical scenarios, including critical donor artery stenosis, anomalous coronary origins post-TAVI, and complex multivessel disease with limited vascular access. Gain insights into tailored strategies such as retrograde approaches and management after arterial switch...
Intracoronary imaging-guided MINOCA management
20 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
This session addresses the nuanced role of intracoronary imaging in guiding the management of MINOCA patients. Explore interventions including interventional endarterectomy, cutting-balloon PCI for spontaneous coronary artery dissection, strategies for spastic vulnerable plaques, and unusual acute STEMI presentations.
Treatment and prognostic stratification of ACS patients with cardiogenic shock
21 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
This session focuses on treatment and prognostic stratification in ACS patients complicated by cardiogenic shock. Topics include mechanical CPR device performance, SCAI shock grade dynamics, hemorrhagic event predictors, ECMO-related strategies, and evaluation of BCIS conveyance algorithms for out-of-hospital cardiac arrest.
Tough cases, smart imaging
20 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
This session showcases challenging cardiovascular cases where smart imaging techniques guide diagnosis and intervention. Highlights include innovative soft balloon angiography in complex patients, anatomical-physiological ischemic mismatch analysis, IVUS-guided evaluation of rare SVG stenosis, and the power of perspective in imaging interpretation.
When multivessel disease is so complex
21 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
Addressing the complexities of multivessel coronary disease, this session presents challenging cases including double chronic total occlusions and the emerging link between blood lipids and plaque formation. Learn strategic approaches to revascularization in NSTEMI and investigative insights into plaque biology.
When coronary angiography is not enough
20 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
Dive into the complexities that arise when coronary angiography alone is insufficient. This session explores comprehensive physiology and imaging assessments in INOCA with ventricular fibrillation, repeat coronary events, acetylcholine testing for epicardial spasm, and invasive physiology to stratify angina therapy.
How to optimise radiation exposure in the cathlab
21 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
Explore comprehensive strategies to optimise radiation exposure in the cathlab through innovative technologies and workflow improvements. This session covers the implementation of radiation protection cabins, insights from the ROBO-SIL registry on robotic PCI, use of protective drapes, the EggNest system, exoskeleton-based radiation protection suits, and comparative...
