One Stent Bifurcation Techniques and Possible Bail Out Solutions Using Multimodality Imaging
Author: Goran Stankovic, MD, Clinical Center of Serbia, Serbia
BIFURCATION EDUCATION IS NEEDED
- Collaboration between EBC, Visible Heart Lab (VHL) and Medtronic initiated by EBC at 2012 meeting;
- There is a need to create: Educational program for fellows and young IC’s, aimed to help understanding bifurcation treatment techniques, complications and outcomes;
- The idea: A series of case scenarios, where trainee can learn step-by-step performance of different bifurcation stenting techniques and based on a combination of imaging technologies and computer simulation.
OBJECTIVES
Optimization of provisional one-stent bifurcation PCI technique and possible bail out solutions using multimodality imaging, including Visible Heart lab and OCT.
