Watch this roundtable if you want to get insights on the role of intravascular imaging in the decision tree algorithms and the place of rotational atherectomy in state-of-the-art PCI.

This session will be broadcasted live from the Boston Scientific Institute for Advancing Science in Paris, France.

Case result:

Program

13:00	Introduction and presentation of the Live-in-the-box case - Complex PCI : Severe calcified distal left main stenosis
13:35	Discussion of the use of imaging to detect the calcium and to help define treatment strategies Panel discussion
13:45	Discussion of devices available in the treatment of the patient, pros and cons Panel discussion
14:00	Revision of clinical evidence on the use of ROTA on calcified lesions and why ROTA was used in this case Panel discussion
14:15	Focus on stent selection for LM vessel and discussion on stenting technique options for LM bifurcation Panel discussion
14:30	Closing Remarks

Educational Objectives

To review the clinical evidence available on intracoronary imaging to improve outcomes in severe calcified lesions
To understand the impact of lesion length and the degree of calcification on treatment choice
To discuss lesion specific strategies in severely calcified CAD highlighting the role of Rotational atherectomy
To learn about stent choice for complex PCI and bifurcation technique options

Target audience

This live case is dedicated to interventional cardiologists interested and/or specialized in coronary angioplasty
A prerequisite for attendees in an initial knowledge and practice of angioplasty
