             Guidelines recommend using imaging in complex #PCI . New meta-analysis of RCTs supports this and allows estimate the potential benefit of #IVUS or #OCT: NUMBER NEEDED TO TREAT is 11 pts to prevent one TVF in #LM PCI and of 27 in #bifurcation PCI.   https://t.co/NKibFjPC0p

             Now we know: if you embarque into bifurcation stenting and want/need to treat LARGE side-branches, POT-KISS-POT is associated with better OCT results. Great 🙏 & 👋 to Gemelli’s interventional cardiology team !!!!! #CRT2025 #JACCINT

             After years… we have finally been able to summarize all the tricks we endorsed or developed… Indeed, we STRONGLY BELIEVE that the benefit of transcatheter procedures like #PCI #Impella #ECMO #TAVR often depends on how we deal with the arterial access!!! Thank you to the TEAM!

              In this experiment, investigators demonstrated autoregulation of coronary-artery blood flow in response to increasing stenosis using continuous thermodilution.
