How to set up console for acquiring a pullback is discussed and image interpretation is provided by Dr Yoshi Onuma. Bifurcation techniques are discussed reviewing a one stent or two stent strategy as well as POT. 3D reconstruction is performed pre and post Ultimaster stent, with discussion regarding stent design facilitating bifurcation lesion treatment.
This imaging workshop is targeted at interventional cardiologists and also at other cardiologists wishing to update their scientific knowledge on the topic.

OFDI/OCT is becoming more and more prevalent in day-to-day clinical practice, with the advent of more clinical data providing us with greater insight as to where the clinician should be using this imaging modality. The OFDI workshop provides all you need to know to understand the basics of coronary imaging and what you need to do to implement it within the cath lab.
