I wanted to go have a coffee, but I can’t leave my seat! @GoranEBC #EuroPCR and an AMAZING analysis of the CTCA before going live, I will do this when back home! @PCRonline
Stepwise provisional strategy decided by looking at the CT images!!

Another micro-axial flow pump trial, this time in high-risk PCI—same leap of faith, same outcome. Result? No benefit. If anything, a signal in the wrong direction. We keep expanding “protected PCI” without proof it protects patients—only operators. When doing more starts to look like doing harm, it’s time to pause. #ACC26 https://t.co/zH2VQBCJS7

Here @GoranEBC shows us how he used imaging in this case, this is like seeing converts to new religions!
Those non imaging experts joining the imaging revolution is music to quality!
