WELCOME TO ASIA PHYSIOLOGY AND CORONARY IMAGING 2019!

A very warm welcome to APACi 2019!

The idea for organizing this physiology and coronary imaging course arose from APAC’s wider vision to help clinicians understand the pathophysiology of coronary atherosclerosis and gain knowledge in intracoronary imaging and physiological assessment. Our main focus is on practical learning for participants, and we are very grateful for the support of our colleagues from the Asia Pacific who have chipped in to provide expert updates and perspectives on new intravascular devices.

There will be four workshops (IVUS, OCT, FF/iFR, and QFR assessment) with an emphasis on proper data acquisition, data interpretation, and clinical decision-making. We hope you will enjoy the learning experience and encourage you to participate actively and make this a lively and fruitful meeting.

Thank you all for choosing to come to APACi 2019. Last but not least, we suggest you find some time to explore Singapore’s newest attraction – Jewel at Changi Airport, which promises a unique airport experience!
