High-risk coronary plaques (HRPs) predict adverse outcomes — but can clinical risk scores identify them? @RickVolleberg et al. showed that OCT-detected HRPs carry prognostic value beyond traditional risk factors, underscoring the role of intracoronary imaging for risk

Our study on outcomes of OCT/IVUS vs. angio guidance of DES in 2005 severely calcified lsns in ECLIPSE publ in JACC CV Int. Img used in 62% (dr discretion) associated with 26% adj decr in TVF. Consistent w/orbital atherectomy or balloon vessel prep. Link https://t.co/x00yLj7JO2

📍 Touchdown in Aarhus for the Commission's visit to @eu2025dk Denmark’s fast and focused approach gets things done. And that’s exactly the kind of mindset Europe needs right now. An urgency mindset.

Our publication in EHJ: In ILUMIEN IV, >50% of lesions were mod/sev calcified. OCT-guided PCI in calcified lesions reduced 2-yr rate of TVF and serious MACE - one of the best uses for OCT guidance! Free access link: https://t.co/0ZX6qtCYwk

Great to see this paper published! Imaging is so important to optimize outcome and we need to overcome the barriers to implement this as a routine in clinical practice. Only question that remains is in all patients or just those with a higher degree of complexity?
🆕📖Why is #intracoronary #imaging underutilized despite strong evidence? New white paper at #EuroPCR explores key barriers & proposes actions for wider integration💡 ➡️ https://t.co/7oCg2Kv5Ce

Unintended stent deformation is seen in 10% of bifurcation PCI. Mechanism? How to pick it up? And how to treat. Come to Theatre Bleu 20th of may 12.00 to 13.00

Systematic intravascular #imaging in all comers, including a large proportion of #CHIP cases, is feasible and still associated with incremental benefit for #PCI over an already high utilization.
🚀 In a large #CHIP #PCI center @UWMedHeart, systematic intravascular imaging (≥80% of PCIs) led to 📉 radiation dose, 📉 contrast volume, and 📉 cardiac tamponade rates. Strong evidence for systematic IVI use! 💪 @LAzzaliniMD

We have some days that we feel as more important than others. Yesterday was one of those. Great kick-off day @Maranello for the cooperation between the #Cardiology Team of Policlinico Gemelli and Med-Ex (Ferrari Medical Partner) to promote workers’ healthness in @Ferrari!

#ACC25 @PCRonline ⚒️Eclipse Trial concludes that for crossable lesions a balloon based modification strategy guided by imaging should be the default. ⚒️So for uncrossable lesions, orbital, rotational or laser atherectomy remain useful tools. ⚒️ A video appendix provides
