Masterclass 13: Complex PCI in women
Details
We will be playing selected excerpts from the original "Complex PCI in Women" Masterclass available to watch in full here
Underdiagnosed. Under-represented. Underwhelming outcomes. We know that there is much work to be done to bridge the PCI inequality gap between females and males. That’s why we’re committing our expertise, clinical focus and technological advances to do everything we can to narrow the gap.
Join us for this class as the faculty:
- Discusses the differences between the sexes: anatomy, clinical presentation, comorbidities
- Reviews complex PCI cases in women through case presentation and discussion
- Examines the current literature for women with calcified lesions to better understand the gaps in the clinical evidence
- Considers the rationale and design of the EMPOWER CAD Trial

Read MoreDr. Lansky is a Professor of Medicine in the section of Cardiology at the Yale School of Medicine, and is a practicing cardiologist at Yale-New Haven Hospital in New Haven, CT. She has dedicated her career to leading clinical and angiographic evaluations of more than 500 clinical trials in a broad range of ischemic cardiovascular therapeutic areas, including pharmacologic and interventional device trials, many of which are landmark trials in the field and/or leading to FDA approval in the United States. She has served as the principal investigator on numerous national and international imaging studies, devices, DES, and neuroprotection trials. Dr. Lansky has authored and coauthored over 500 academic peer-reviewed manuscripts in the fields of interventional cardiology, angiography, and women’s cardiovascular health. She chaired the American Heart Association Statement on Interventions in Women and most recently the Academic Research Consortium defining Neurologic Endpoints in clinical cardiovascular trials.
