Abbott

Abbott is proud to host the 7th annual CORE meeting in collaboration with Optima Education.

We will bring together world-renowned experts and complex PCI operators to discuss and demonstrate how we can optimise PCI outcomes.

This edition is focused on calcium modification and bifurcation strategies. The meeting will provide attendees with hands-on simulation experience on bifurcation stent strategy, physiology, and Orbital Atherectomy, in addition to practical insights on OCT imaging.
