This unique two-day course being held in Chennai for the first time in India and Asia aims to address all aspects of complications in interventional procedures. Led by world-renowned experts, this course offers a one-of-a-kind opportunity to learn the latest techniques and innovations in interventional cardiology. It addresses how to reduce the risk of complications and importantly how to deal with complications.
- The two-day course being held for the first time in India and over 300 cardiologists across the globe to tackle procedural challenges and improve patient outcomes
- Some of the eminent speakers include Dr William Lombardi, USA, International Course Director; Dr. Masahisa Yamane, Japan, International Course Director; Dr Ahmed El-Guindy, Egypt, Dr Ashok Seth, Dr Samuel Mathew, Dr Sridhar Kasturi, Dr P K Goel, Dr. Pehlajani, and Dr Anantharaman
- Cardiologists get training on CTO scenarios, atherectomy, snaring, deployment of coronary and peripheral covered stents, use of coils, and ancillary imaging
“In the next two days, over 300 leading cardiologists from India and several other countries will be present. This advanced, in-depth exploration is designed to help cardiologists overcome challenges and improve patient outcomes through dissemination of cutting-edge procedural expertise and valuable knowledge” said Dr Arun Kalyanasundaram, Director, APCTO Club and Chief Cardiologist, Promed Hospital, and Organizing chairman of the AICC conference.
