Calcification – optimal treatment
! “the degree of calcification in arteries appears to correlate highly with the extent of atherosclerosis” Solberg LA, Circulation 1971
3
! More calcification -> more advanced and severe atherosclerosis ! Increased cardiovascular morbidity and mortality (e.g.
coronary artery disease, renal insufficiency, etc.)
! Increased lesion complexity ! Optimal therapy = multidisciplinary!

! Optimal therapy = multidisciplinary! ! Complex lesions and lenghty complex interventions; success remains
challenging even with the newest devices ! Outcome is less favourable compared to non-calcified lesions ! With increased understanding of calcification, more sophisticated,
individualized treatment regiments will likely evolve to make optimal use of the variety of dedicated technologies
! Limited data, no standard for calcium scoring, comparison of study outcomes potentially misleading
! Cost-effectiveness of advanced technologies
