Program Overview

DES’s are now employed widely in high-risk patients and complex lesions. These indications are very different from the simple de novo lesions and low risk patients enrolled in early clinical studies and now include the treatment of AMI patients.

During this summit, leaders in interventional Cardiology will convene to present their work, experiences, observations, and opinions in this challenging and unique field of DES.
