Join your colleagues from around the world, earn CME,<br />

and explore key areas rapidly expanding in cardiovascular<br />

medicine and surgery. ICA 2010 is designed to meet the specific<br />

educational needs <strong>of</strong> medical pr<strong>of</strong>essionals involved with the<br />

management and treatment <strong>of</strong> cardiovascular diseases, as they<br />

are encountered by primary care physicians, vascular, general,<br />

thoracic, cardiovascular surgeons, cardiologists, and interventional<br />

and neuroradiologists, fellows and residents <strong>of</strong> the above<br />

specialties, vascular biologists and their staff, and nurses.<br />

The overall goal is to bring together basic and clinical<br />

scientists to share knowledge and techniques in angiology, and<br />

provide an interaction with peers.<br />

This annual world congress will feature an internationally<br />

renowned faculty, and recognized leaders will discuss state-<strong>of</strong>-theart<br />

techniques in the diagnosis and treatment <strong>of</strong> vascular disease.<br />

Live video case presentations, didactic lectures, panel discussions,<br />

debates, and question and answer sessions, will highlight the most<br />

challenging and controversial topics and procedures performed in<br />

interventional medicine. We encourage all <strong>of</strong> our colleagues to<br />

participate in this growing educational program by either<br />

submission <strong>of</strong> a formal abstract for standard oral, poster, or video<br />

presentation.<br />

Venue<br />
