Proud to see our work featured in a new meta-analysis in #JACCImaging!
Even more rewarding to see TWO studies I contributed to- Parikh R et al. and Sakai K et al. included in the central illustration and evidence supporting photon-counting CT from our work
These findings highlight how advances in CT technology may influence not only image quality and diagnostic confidence, but also downstream patient management.
Grateful to my colleagues and collaborators at @StFrancis_LI for their continued dedication to advancing cardiovascular imaging research.

This one took countless hours of many people!
AI-based OCT image analysis tested against expert interobserver agreement in a large-scale consecutive real-world dataset.
🚨🚨 Consistent performance supporting generalizability!

1/2 Our updated meta-analysis of intravascular imaging guidance publ in JACC. Since our last synthesis in Lancet 2024, there have been 6 new RCTs with 8,670 additional pts. Total is now 28 RCTs with 24,634 patients with mean FU 22 mos. Should be enough for a definitive answer!

International Day for Interventional Cardiology: the first coronary #angioplasty
On 16 September 1977, Andreas Grüntzig & his team made history, and changed the lives of millions of patients forever.
Standing on the shoulders of the giants that came before him, this transformative vision led to an entirely new field of medicine.
What began nearly five decades ago with coronary angioplasty has grown into the broad field of interventional cardiology, transforming cardiovascular care through research, innovation and technological progress.
As the field has evolved, so has the need to learn from experience, share knowledge and shape what comes next. Join us in 2027 at #EuroPCR to mark this landmark moment!

What began as an idea #CTguidedPCI is becoming an increasingly accessible platform for interventional cardiologists.
Today, at least four companies—@HeartFlow, @Cleerly, @ElucidBio, and @SiemensHealth —have developed dedicated #CCTA platforms for the interventional cardiologist 👇
Now the field is waiting for the pivotal #P4 trial, to be presented at @TCTMD.
The next chapter of PCI planning is about to begin 💪

When we think of CT angio we usually think of risk stratification, prevention and diagnosis.
But CT angio can also be used to plan your PCI procedures !
Dr. Evan Shlofmitz and I discuss how it can be used for stent sizing, stent length to assure you are stenting from normal to normal vessel walls (not lumens) and other advantages.
