learning objectives<br />
- To discuss how to handle different equipment for tumour<br />
ablation in the liver<br />
- To know the predictive factors of success and failure of liver<br />
ablation and other ablation techniques, in order to be able<br />
to define best indication<br />
- To know the main reported complications of liver tumour<br />
ablation and the basics for the prevention and treatment of<br />
such complications<br />
- By the end of the workshops the participants should have a<br />
good understanding of a range of ablation techniques in the<br />
liver and be aware of tips and tricks for proper clinical<br />
application<br />

Hands-on Workshops<br />
Varicose veins<br />
Coordinators: C.A. Binkert (Winterthur/CH),<br />
K.D. McBride (Dunfermline/UK)<br />
Endovenous thermal ablation of varicose veins is well suited<br />
for interventional radiologists to perform. IRs have all<br />
the necessary skills to provide good care for patients with<br />
varicose veins: patient evaluation, diagnostic duplex ultrasound,<br />
venous access under ultrasound guidance and<br />
catheter-based intervention.<br />
Unfortunately, many IRs are not yet familiar with the relevant<br />
devices. This Hands-on Workshop gives an opportunity to gain<br />
familiarity with the currently available ablation devices including<br />
the handling of different fibres and probes and the corresponding<br />
generators. Participants will learn how to use these<br />
devices so that they can get started with a venous ablation<br />
practice.<br />
learning objectives<br />
- To learn about the two main methods for endovenous<br />
ablation: laser and radiofrequency<br />
- To get familiar with the set-up needed to perform<br />
endovenous ablation<br />
- To get practical experience with different devices<br />
