Diagnosis and treatment of epicarical disease

Within Interventional cardiology we are well equipped to diagnose and treat epicardial coronary disease, using tools such as Angio/FFR/IVUS/OCT/Stents/Balloons

Microcirculation

We are less effective in understanding and treating disease related to the other 95% of the coronary vasculature – the microcirculation

30-50%

of patients presenting with Angina have no obstructive coronary artery disease at angiography[1]

Up to 30%

of patients continue to have angina despite successful stent implantation[2]

The clinical need

Ability to separate epicardial disease…

…from microvascular dysfunction at the point-of-care, Angio

Goal:
Provide a
complete diagnosis
with a
tailored patient treatment strategy
