Abstracts are a useful format for sharing new
information on topics in interventional cardiology-in particular,
the early stages of developmental Investigation – to stimulate
the important exchanges of ideas. Abstracts should address some
area of interventional cardiology or endovascular disease (clinical
studies, basic investigation, and animal studies are equally encouraged)
and constitute original research, but the content may include
portions of prior abstracts and/or manuscripts submitted or presented
elsewhere. Please adhere to the following preparation instructions.
