Description

The field of cardiology is rapidly evolving in all of its subspecialty areas. Technology is changing equally fast. The Cardiovascular Summit 2023 will highlight information and state-of-the- art updates essential for any health care professional that is part of the extensive team that engages in every aspect of cardiac care.

The primary objective is to present well-rounded and in-depth information, as well as advancements in cardiology. Focused topics for the day are divided into sections: Interventional, Imaging, Advanced Heart Failure, and EP. Within each section, specialists will delve into information including clinical trials, management of venous and arterial disease, structural case presentations, imaging of the athletic heart, Computed Tomography in the role of coronary work up for chest pain, heart failure with preserved EF, management of atrial fibrillation and a multidisciplinary approach to complex electrophysiology conditions.

Join us for a day of education and explore modern concepts in cardiovascular care.
