CRT20, Feb 22-25, 2020, National Harbor, MD

Join CBSET at CRT20 February 22-25, 2020, at the Gaylord National Convention Center, 201 Waterfront St, National Harbor, MD.

CRT is one of the world’s leading interventional cardiology conferences. The conference serves as a forum for physician and health-care professional education about new cardiovascular technology and interventional procedures in the field.

Rami Tzafriri, PhD, CBSET’s Director of Research and Innovation, will be presenting:

  • “Six Month Safety Evaluation Of The Chocolate Touch™ Drug-coated Balloon Catheter In The Swine Peripheral Artery Model” on Saturday, February 22, at 4:15 PM, in the Abstracts & Interesting Cases track, as part of the Endovascular – Peripheral Vascular Intervention and Other session in the Tamai Room.
  • Poster presentation “Computational Prediction Of Drug-eluting Stent Performance In Patient-specific Arteries – A Virtual Reality” on Saturday February 22, 5:30-7:00, in the Exhibition area.
  • “Procedural and Anatomical Determinants of Multi-Electrode Renal Denervation: Preclinical Versus Clinical” on Sunday, February 23, at 10:48 AM, as part of the Session on Hypertension Definition, Pathophysiology, New Targets and Medical Therapy.

Rami will also be participating as a panelist in the discussion: “Is There an Unmet Need for Device-Based Renal Denervation?” on Sunday, February 23, from 11:44 AM – 12:00 PM, as part of the Hypertension Definition, Pathophysiology, New Targets and Medical Therapy session.

If you would like to meet up with us at the event, please contact Rami Tzafriri.
