How to Implement CT-Guided PCI in Your Practice and the Role of Multidisciplinary Collaboration, Dr. Jaffer

Video Transcription

Video Summary

The speaker outlines four essentials for building a CT-guided PCI program: demonstrating clinical value, identifying stakeholders, fostering multidisciplinary collaboration, and implementing the workflow. He emphasizes evidence that CT guidance can improve outcomes and help plan PCI, especially with support from interventional cardiologists, cardiac imagers, radiologists, administrators, IT/security teams, and industry partners. A key theme is close collaboration with imagers to learn CT interpretation, improve reports, and guide procedures in real time. He also highlights advances like photon-counting CT and integration into PACS to make adoption easier and more effective.
