CONCLUSION
- Bifurcation PCI is associated with increased rates of adverse events; optimal bifurcation PCI technique is a challenge
- Anatomy and local biomechanics are major determinants of bifurcation stent restenosis and thrombosis
- Patient-specific bifurcation stenting provides opportunities for design, and improved outcomes better planning of bifurcation stenting, optimization of stent
- Flow ISR/ProPOT Study investigates the: (i) Accuracy and superiority of POT vs. KBI feasibility of computational bifurcation stenting, (ii) Clinical
- Need to create an online bifurcation atlas. Please upload bifurcation angiograms w or w/o OCT/IVUS
