An optimal guide provides a stable platform for the operator to advance devices to the coronary ostium, through tortuous arterial segments, and across tight lesions. This chapter deals with guide design, guide manipulations, and guide selection as well as guides for LAD lesions, LCX lesions, RCA lesions, and coronary anomalies. The guide is selected according to the size of the ascending aorta, the location of the ostia to be cannulated, and the degree of tortuosity and calcification of the coronary segment proximal to the target area. In a case of aortic dissection, the arterial entry route chosen may not allow access to the true aortic lumen. For these reasons, a careful discussion of the goals of angiography should be carried out with the surgeon. An experienced interventionist should be aware of all variations of coronary anomalies and systematically search in other aortic sinuses when the vessel in question does not arise from its usual location.
