SIR 2019 is designed to meet the educational needs of practicing interventional radiologists, IR's in-training, diagnostic radiologists, and other physicians with a special interest in IR—and is the only venue offering IR education designed specifically for clinical associates. The meeting also offers a supportive and highly interactive introduction to IR for medical students who may be considering the specialty as their focus.

EHRA 2019 is the leading European EP conference and will tackle "Implementing diagnostic and therapeutic innovations in daily practice"
Dynamic scientific content including contribution and analysis on the recent ESC Guidelines on cardiac arrhythmia's, such as atrial fibrillation, syncope, ventricular tachycardia and sudden cardiac death.
Presentation of world-class research and latest trials from the field!

CRT, one of the world’s leading interventional cardiology conferences, is attended by more than 3,000 interventional and endovascular specialists. The conference, held each year in Washington, DC, is supported by MedStar Heart & Vascular Institute and serves as a forum for physician and health-care professional education about new cardiovascular technology and interventional procedures in the field. The meeting is actually several conferences at once, with tracks including CRT Valve & Structural, CRT Endovascular, Technology & Innovation, Atherosclerosis & Research, and Nurses & Technologists.
