Explore the next era of coronary intravascular lithotripsy featuring innovative technology for calcium modification. This session covers the unique mechanism of action, practical application in complex cases, and recent clinical evidence supporting its safety and efficacy.

This session introduces the novel Hertz Contact intravascular lithotripsy system, designed for effective calcium fragmentation without trade-offs. It covers lesion types amenable to treatment, system mechanism, optimization tips, and discusses real-world cases along with supporting clinical trial evidence.

Large-bore femoral access closure remains a critical step in transfemoral TAVI, where access-site complications can significantly impact outcomes.

This My Toolkit article presents a step-by-step tutorial on a combined suture- and plug-based closure strategy using one ProStyle™ and one Angio-Seal®. The technique aims to achieve rapid, reliable...

In this article, Bruno Scheller explores advances in local drug delivery, from drug-coated balloons to novel antiproliferative agents. These innovations aim to reduce restenosis, minimize permanent implants, and pave the way for patient-specific coronary artery disease treatments.
