The incremental value of invasive coronary angiographic characteristics in predicting the success of retrograde chronic total occlusion percutaneous coronary intervention via invisible collateral channels
Incorporating the ICA characteristic of the RCA-PDA length:LOPA ratio significantly improved predictive accuracy when compared to the use of Guidezilla catheter status alone. Thus, ICA characteristics provide significant incremental value in predicting technical success when the Guidezilla catheter is applied for retrograde CTO PCI via invisible septal CCs.
