Course Description: C3 is a cutting-edge, live case demonstration course featuring world-renowned faculty and extensive coverage of the leading clinical issues facing today's endovascular specialists. Now in its third year, C3 is an excellent opportunity for interventional cardiologists, interventional radiologists and vascular surgeons who are looking for high-level education in advanced coronary, peripheral and carotid interventions, as well as technical issues.
Course Description:The increasing prevalence of vascular disease within the general population strongly suggests the critical need for medical personnel to stay abreast of advances in its prevention, diagnosis and management. Jointly sponsored by Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard Medical School, the MGH Vascular Summit offers the ideal educational forum for communicating the latest information to primary care practitioners and allied health professionals as well as specialists in cardiology, neurology, radiology, vascular surgery, nephrology and podiatry. Now in its third year, the symposium will gather leading experts to address topics of greatest concerns to those who serve patients presenting with any of a wide range of associated symptoms.
Course Directors: Michael R. Jaff, DO; Glenn M. LaMuraglia, MD; Christopher S. Ogilvy, MD; Johnny C. Pryor, MD; Kenneth Rosenfield, MD; Scott B. Silverman, MD; Stephan Wicky, MD
Course Description: Approaches, techniques and devices related to the placement and management of dialysis access continue to evolve. Through the sharing of information and by discussing both successes and complications, practitioners can further their understanding and their skills. Controversies in Dialysis Access, now in its fourth year, offers a solid sounding board for debate on a variety of pertinent, sometimes controversial topics. Internationally recognized experts with years of experience will emphasize new developments and current trends, and attendees will be encouraged to actively contribute to dialogue on questions of greatest concern.
Course Description: This hands-on
training, taught and supervised by expert American physicians,
offers the rare opportunity to perform vein-removal surgical
procedures by working with patients in a modern clinical facility
in the Dominican Republic. Doctors with international reputations
in the treatment of venous disease offer small-group practical
and classroom instruction in an intensive 3.5-day course. Participants
will learn to perform endovenous ablation, ambulatory phlebectomy,
sclerotherapy and venous ultrasound within the setting of a private,
state-of-the-art out-patient facility. To ensure high quality
and provide personalized attention, the course is limited to
a maximum of eight participants. For convenience, accommodations
are available in a world-class resort one mile from the clinic.
The goal of the course is to prepare physicians
to perform at the highest skill levels in an area of medicine
currently experiencing rapid growth. If you have been considering
making available venous procedures as part of your practice,
this course could provide the foundation for such expansion.
Co-directors: Jose Almeida,
