The Gatekeeper
CT before the cath lab CAD burden, deferring cath, and Cleerly's role in planning.
Cleerly Faculty
Scanning for the Operator
Interventional-grade CCTA acquisition & reconstruction, and what the cath lab needs from the scan.
Mohamed Al-Akchar
CT Meets Cath
CT ↔ angio correlation physiology vs. angiography, where they agree (and don't).
Emad Hakemi
From Report to Roadmap
Building the plan for PCI strategy.
Emad Hakemi
Follow the Ischemia
Cleerly ISCHEMIA AI-driven ischemia detection & lesion selection.
Sami Abuzaid
Hands-On Case Lab
The Hard Stuff: left main, bifurcation, multivessel and calcified vessels + calcium-modification strategy. One Scan, Many Plans: the Heart-Team read when the CT + angio picture says surgery, not a stent. Into the Lab: integrating CCTA + Cleerly into the cath-lab & Heart-Team workflow. Plus a look at medical management and plaque regression.
