In this supplement:
- Raghuram Lakshminarayan (Hull, UK) provides a detailed overview of how Shockwave intravascular lithotripsy (IVL) is poised to meet the increasingly prevalent challenge of chronic limb-threatening ischaemia (CLTI).
- Sharing the details of a recent case, Michel Bosiers (Bern, Switzerland) argues that Shockwave IVL is playing an increasingly central role in the treatment of calcified iliac inflow disease.
- Leyla Schweiger (Graz, Austria) outlines a case in which Shockwave IVL enabled effective lesion preparation, supported subsequent treatment, and contributed to wound healing in a patient with heavily calcified femoropopliteal disease.
- Pablo Del Canto (Gijón, Spain) presents the case of a patient with severely calcified below-the-knee (BTK) disease. The Shockwave E8, he shares, was key to a good result in a challenging clinical scenario.
