"Dr. Chong has performed coronary angioplasty cases with successful complex interventional cases involving high-risk patients with multiple comorbidities. These include some of the coronary interventional cases rejected by cardiothoracic surgeons due to the extreme high-risk nature for bypass surgery. He has performed complex angioplasty cases which include left main stenting, multi-vessel angioplasty, rotablation for heavily calcified lesions, antegrade and retrograde angioplasty to chronic total occlusion, angioplasty to bifurcation and graft lesions, modern hybrid angioplasty in collaboration with cardiothoracic surgeon for multiple lesions and intervention to critically ill patients requiring intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) and extra-corporal membrane oxidation (ECMO). Dr. Chong is a frequent user of adjunct advanced interventional imaging equipments, which include pressure wire, intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) and optical coherent tomography (OCT). He was an invited speaker on the use of optical coherent tomography in major cardiology meeting in the Philippines in 2014. Dr. Chong is an elected Fellow of the Asia-Pacific Society of Interventional Cardiology (FAPSIC) and a Fellow of the Society for Cardiovascular Angiography and Interventions (FSCAI) in the USA. Dr. Chong has published a list of research papers in the journals of interventional cardiology, which include leading journals such as the American Journal of Cardiology, Journal of Interventional Cardiology.
