The EBC debate on stepwise OCT guiding for bifurcation treatment
OCT and POT
Author: Nicolas Foin, MD, National Heart Center Singapore
SUMMARY
- distal reference stent sizing=proximal underexpansion of the stent > POT needed to complete stent expansion
- POT facilitate optimal mid-distal SB recrossing
- OCT guidance is useful for stent sizing and assessment of strut apposition
- BVS sizing in bifurcation?Proximal or distal ref?
