Optimal PCI is proud to be partnering with OPCI, our US colleagues based out of New York to bring you this next instalment of leading cardiology education. Our international faculty will be presenting the latest thinking, insights, data and techniques in four vital areas of PCI.

Ever wondered how to prevent and treat stent failure, how to integrate advances in calcium management into your practice, puzzled at where to start with the post CABG patient or struggled with CTOs? If so let us help.

Featuring bespoke content from leading global experts and live cases from the top centres in Europe and the US this meeting offers a unique opportunity to update and invigorate your practice.
