NEJM Publishes Study of IVUS-Guided PCI in Left Main Coronary Disease
Start here
The New England Journal of Medicine has published an article on intravascular ultrasound (IVUS)-guided percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in left main coronary disease, appearing in Volume 395, Issue 16, pages 1662-1665, dated October 22, 2026. The topic sits at the intersection of interventional cardiology practice and imaging guidance: whether ultrasound visualization of the left main coronary artery during stent placement improves outcomes. The published bibliographic record does not detail the study design, sample size, or efficacy results, so those specifics are not yet established in the available material. What remains open is the substance of the findings — the trial's methodology, patient population, and clinical endpoints — which clinicians will need before drawing conclusions for catheterization laboratory practice.
