A coronary chronic total occlusion (CTO) is defined as complete obstruction with TIMI 0 flow, present for a (estimated) duration of more than 3 months. In patients with significant coronary artery disease (defined as at least one major epicardial vessel with a stenosis ≥70%), a CTO is common and found in approximately half of such patients.
However, in recent years, through advances in dedicated equipment and specific techniques, expert operators have significantly improved recanalization rates leading to a resurgence of interest in CTO PCI. To date, coronary recanalization of chronic arterial occlusions opens up the pathway towards indisputable therapeutic perspectives to coronary insufficient patients and open-up significant progresses in global PCI practices.  

The goal of our CTO course is to provide physicians with an interactive curriculum necessary to achieve efficient coronary Chronic Total Occlusion (CTO) angioplasty results and provide patients greater access to qualified operators.
Specific cases have been registered and edited by the incathlab team for more than a year in several European centers, to achieve the purpose of this course: proposing exclusive procedures selected by CTO experts to educate on different and crucial steps.
Through more than 40 recorded cases and detailed lectures from leading high volume physicians currently performing CTO procedures, you'll learn in unlimited access all the techniques necessary to become proficient in your treatment of CTOs.  
A tailored research system has been developed for a sorting by specific criteria: anatomy, difficulty or technique. A private mailbox with your CTO tutors is available in order to answer in real time to questions and reflections. Additional tools have been added to the course (glossary, CTO toolbox, quizzes…) to improve the educative process and support your personal learning.

The tutorial offers interventional cardiologists to improve their skills in many axis:


•     Assessment of the best approach and its management 


•     Guided approach and crossings, usable micro catheters 


•     Complementing methods to approach, cross, progress and re-enter 


•     Management of failure turning into successful recanalization 


•     Placing of bare, active and bio-resorbable stents 


•     Management of main complications 


•     Pharmacologic environment 


•     Steering of a multi-disciplinary practice 


•     Convenient environment for the development of such a practice
