🎙️ CT-Guided PCI: The Imager-Interventionalist Partnership

In Episode 13 of The Coronary Corner, @RyanMadderMD & Michael Gallagher discuss how imaging and interventional teams can partner to build a CT-guided PCI program—from FFR-CT to procedural planning with PCI Navigator.

“Don’t stop at stenosis severity—think about physiology, plaque burden, calcium distribution, and lesion length.”

Thank you to the 30+ physician participants who joined us from across the United States and internationally for The Coronary CT for PCI Academy in Denver, Colorado (August 4–5, 2026).

Led by Drs. @yadersandoval, @esbrilakis, and @ColletCarlos, this immersive, hands-on program focused on the practical implementation of CT-guided PCI.

Next: The U.S. Physiology Course: 2nd Edition

Great start to The Coronary CT for PCI Academy in Denver with @yadersandoval @esbrilakis and @ColletCarlos ! An outstanding Day 1 of interactive lectures, case discussions, and hands-on training focused on CT-guided PCI.

Day 2 begins this morning (7:00 AM–12:30 PM) — walk-ins welcome! If you're at #CVI2026, stop by and join us.

🎙️ CT-guided PCI: From CT-RECTOR to CT for Complex PCI Planning

In Ep. 12 of The Coronary Corner Podcast, Drs. @yadersandoval and @esbrilakis are joined by Dr. @OpolskiMP to discuss the implementation of coronary CT for planning complex PCI, the development of the CT-RECTOR score, and practical applications of CT for CTO PCI, bifurcation PCI, and calcified coronary disease.

🎙️ Virtual PCI: Can We Predict Physiologic Success Before Entering the Cath Lab?

In Episode 11 of The Coronary Corner Podcast, Drs. Yader Sandoval, MD and Emmanouil Brilakis discuss the emerging role of virtual PCI and how coronary CT can be used to simulate different stent implantation strategies and predict post-PCI physiology before entering the cath lab.

🎙️ CT-guided PCI: Navigating PCI with CT Guidance

In Episode 10 of The Coronary Corner, @ziadalinyc discusses his journey from intravascular imaging to CT-guided PCI, including use of the PCI Navigator and the NAVIGATE PCI registry.

“We have to move with the times. We have to accept that when a technology is simpler, faster, safer, that we have to really strongly consider it as a part of the armamentarium.”

Ostial RCA PCI remains one of the most technically challenging scenarios.

In Episode 9 of The Coronary Corner Podcast, Deborah M. F. van den Buijs discusses her randomized pilot trial on 3DCT for preprocedural planning of PCI in ostial RCA lesions (https://t.co/w9BnDNObvt) with @yadersandoval.

Patient-specific C-arm angulation. No geographic mismatch. Less contrast, radiation, and procedural time.

Another example of how CT-guided PCI can be integrated into complex PCI planning.
