Learning Objectives:
  1. Analyze a real-world case where Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) was utilized to guide PCI decision-making and optimize procedural outcomes.
  2. Compare and contrast the advantages and limitations of using OCT techniques in PCI compared to conventional angiography.
  3. Identify key findings and challenges encountered during an OCT-guided PCI procedure.
  4. Discuss how the insights gained from tomography-guided PCI influenced procedural strategy, stent optimization, and patient management in the presented case.
