Prof. Javier Escaned, MD, PhD, Head of the Interventional Cardiology Section at Hospital Clínico San Carlos and Complutense University of Madrid, Spain

Yader Sandoval, MD, interventional cardiologist at the Minneapolis Heart Institute and Co-Chair of the Center for Coronary Artery Disease at the Minneapolis Heart Institute Foundation. He is also an Adjunct Associate Professor of Medicine at the Mayo Clinic College of Medicine and Science.

Javier Escaned, MD, PhD, and Yader Sandoval, MD, examine how CT-guided PCI can move procedural planning upstream and bring more information into the cath lab when it matters most.

From anticipating calcium and complex anatomy to guiding CTO PCI and ultra-low-contrast intervention in patients with CKD, they share practical examples of how CT can shape strategy before and during PCI. They also discuss CT-fluoroscopy co-registration, emerging clinical evidence, and the steps programs can take to begin using CT-guided PCI in practice.
