Dear Colleagues,
Dear Friends,
Interventional therapy of chronic total occlusions has achieved a success rate almost in the range of non-CTO lesions. The previous meetings were a great success, as the feedback from the attending physicians clearly shows that such focused meetings are of great value covering the topic in a fashion that is not possible in major Interventional meetings with broader interests. It is a great opportunity to gather together and to discuss major issues, such as the continuous education, techniques and product development, research in the eld, and many others.
What are the reasons behind this success?
- The number of studies performed in the eld of CTOs has increased consid- erably, and we shall provide an up-to-date overview of current knowledge.
- The major randomized study to consolidate the indication for CTO PCI will be available at that time, the EURO-CTO trial, and we have ample time to discuss the impact the future increase of CTO PCI.
- For the third time “Live cases” will be part of the program.
- With Berlin in the center of Europe, we offer you both an attractive place and a geographically ideal site.
*For more information about the Scientific Program and the Faculty Guests, we invite you to navigate through the Euro CTO Club website.
