IVI & Physiology Trainers is a series of educational interviews dedicated to helping fellows to optimize decision-making in percutaneous coronary intervention using state-of-the-art intravascular imaging and coronary physiology techniques. Live discussions between trainees and key opinion leaders from around the world on current landscape and future directions of intravascular imaging and coronary physiology, hosted by Dr. Pawel Gasior and Dr.Ozan Demir.

He completed training in Structural and Interventional Cardiology at Hammersmith Hospital London. Prior to this he was a Clinical Research Fellow at St Thomas’ Hospital and King’s College London, where he is undertook a PhD in coronary physiology under the supervision of Professor Divaka Perera. He studied Medicine at King’s College London and trained in London prior to undertaking Interventional Cardiology Fellowships at Hammersmith Hospital, London and San Raffaele, Milano. During his Fellowship in Milano, under the supervision of Professor Antonio Colombo and Professor Azeem Latib, he undertook an MSc in Interventional Cardiology at the Università Vita-Salute San Raffaele. He is currently involved in various clinical research studies on cardiovascular physiology and percutaneous structural heart interventions.

Thomas Engstrøm is a professor and senior consultant in the Department of Invasive Cardiology at The Heart Center, Rigshospitalet, University of Copenhagen, Denmark where he has performed percutaneous coronary interventions for more than 15 years. In addition, working with leading a Rigshospitalet research group, he has led steering committees in several international clinical trials and been the main investigator in major trials. His main research interests include myocardial protection in ischemic heart disease with special reference to reperfusion injury, percutaneous assist devices in cardiogenic shock, the significance of pressure-derived strategies in percutaneous coronary interventions and magnetic resonance techniques in acute myocardial infarction.
