Innovations in stentless coronary intervention: from DCB technologies to bioresorbable scaffolds
11 Dec 2025 – From GulfPCR-GIM 2025
This session delves into the evolving landscape of stentless coronary interventions, focusing on the structural diversity of Drug-Coated Balloons (DCB) and the promising future of bioresorbable scaffolds (BRS). It emphasizes the role of intracoronary imaging, particularly OCT, in optimizing these therapies. Attendees gain a comprehensive understanding...
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...
Renal denervation today and tomorrow
11 Dec 2025 – From GulfPCR-GIM 2025
Renal denervation is re-emerging as a valuable therapeutic option for selected patients with hypertension.
This session explores how current evidence, consensus statements, and guidelines inform patient selection for ultrasound renal denervation, while providing practical insight into how the procedure is performed in daily practice.
Beyond the technical aspects,...
Challenging CTO Interventions - Part 2
11 Dec 2025 – From GulfPCR-GIM 2025
This session addresses the complexities of chronic total occlusion (CTO) interventions with a collection of challenging cases employing advanced techniques. Topics include IVUS-assisted recanalisation, hybrid approaches incorporating 3D wiring, retrograde interventions after antegrade failure, and management of procedural complications such as vessel rupture. The session also...
Abstracts - Part 2
11 Dec 2025 – From GulfPCR-GIM 2025
This session compiles recent clinical abstracts addressing diverse topics in interventional cardiology. Highlights include the HYBRID-CTO approach from a prospective case series, the cardiovascular impact of empagliflozin in type 2 diabetes, off-label use of intravascular lithotripsy for resistant in-stent lesions, and experiences with non-hyperaemic pressure ratios...
