TCT 2023, October 23-26, 2023, San Francisco, CA

 

Join CBSET at TCT 2023, which will be held at the Moscone Center, San Francisco, CA, October 23-26, 2023.

TCT 2023 will include innovation, education, and connection in interventional cardiology, with the purpose of improving the survival and quality of life of patients suffering from heart and vascular disease.

Rami Tzafriri, CBSET's Director of Research and Innovation, will be presenting 2 moderated abstracts at this event:

TCT 739: Ultrasound-Enhanced Catheter Directed Thrombolysis in a Porcine Model of Pulmonary Embolism.  Tuesday, Oct. 24, 4:45 PM, Moderated Abstracts Station 6, as part of the session: Studies of Patients with Pulmonary Embolism or Pulmonary Hypertension II.

TCT 432: Imaging-Based Evaluation and Differentiation of Vessel Preparation Technologies in a Porcine Model of Peripheral Artery Stenosis.  Wednesday, Oct. 25, Moderated Abstracts Station 3, as part of the session Peripheral Vascular Intervention Techniques III.

 

Please contact us to schedule a meeting around TCT 2023 with the researchers and authors behind some of the most advanced preclinical models for peripheral artery disease (PAD) in the field.
