We know that sometimes IVUS appears difficult to understand and look forward to making things Simple for you.

Including:

  • International faculty
  • Hands on experience (break-out sessions:
    • Assembling the kit
    • Making Measurements (iPad/computer)
    • Case practice with instructor support
  • Latest clinical evidence
  • Structured case-based lectures on identification of thrombus, dissection, malapposition and more
  • Live case demonstrations using IVUS co-registration
