Volume 15 Number 18

In this issue, articles look at current procedures and devices for TAVI in elliptic annuli and QFR for nonculprit lesions in STEMI; GLOBAL LEADERS investigators consider the impact of ticagrelor monotherapy in elderly patients undergoing PCI; also, a study examining prediction rules for PCI of CTOs comparing the EuroCTO (CASTLE) and J-CTO scores.
