From Evaluation to Execution: Navigating Complex Aortic Cases Through Critical Intraoperative Decision-Making
Join Gore for an engaging exploration of complex aortic case management, from advanced imaging evaluation and procedural planning to the practical application of branched technology. Through interactive case discussions and real-world examples, participants will gain insights into critical decision-making, strategies for navigating intraoperative challenges, and approaches that can help optimize procedural success and patient outcomes.

1:00 PMWelcome & Imaging in Complex Aortic Intervention Brief introduction to the session and goals.
1:15 PMFellow/ technologist Case Exchange: “Bring Your Toughest Case” Each fellow brings one interesting or challenging case involving complex aortic intervention. For each case, roughly 10–12 minutes: What was the clinical problem? What did the pre-procedure imaging show? What made the case challenging? What imaging strategy was used? What would you do differently? Open discussion with the group
2:15 PMGroup Discussion: Imaging Pearls & Pitfalls Pull together recurring themes from the cases.
2:30 PMBreak
2:45 PMSiemens Imaging Workshop Optimizing Imaging for Complex Aortic Procedures, Dose optimization, Image quality, 3D/CBCT, Fusion imaging, Workflow, Challenging anatomy
3:30 PMInteractive “What Would You Do?” Cases Take 2–3 particularly challenging cases and have the entire group work through them. show the imaging before revealing what was actually done.
4:30 PMFuture of Aortic Imaging Facilitated discussion: AI, Automation, Advanced visualization, Fusion/navigation, Radiation reduction, What fellows want from the next generation of imaging systems
4:50 PMTakeaways & Wrap-Up
