Educational program for premier endovascular event is endorsed by the Society of Interventional Radiology and co-developed by Society of Vascular Medicine and through a recently added partnership with the Society of Vascular Surgery.<br />

MALVERN Pa., (November 17, 2022) — HMP Global’s 2023 International Symposium on Endovascular Therapy (ISET) is strengthening its position as the premier meeting for pioneering and practical endovascular education through continued endorsement from the Society of Interventional Radiology (SIR), continued partnership with the Society of Vascular Medicine (SVM), who co-developed the “Essentials of Endovascular Therapy” pre-symposium, and a recently added educational partnership with the Society of Vascular Surgery (SVS), who collaborated on overall programming and provided two new vascular surgery Course Directors to the expert lineup this year.

Now in its 35th year, ISET will take place in person January 16-19, 2023 in Miami Beach and will feature a bold scientific program covering the complete landscape of endovascular therapy practice and challenges. The meeting is an arena to connect interventional radiologists, vascular surgeons, interventional cardiologists, and their teams.

ISET’s founder and course director is Barry T. Katzen, MD, FACC, FACR, FSIR, Founder and Chief Medical Executive of the Miami Cardiac & Vascular Institute; Chief Medical Innovation Officer, Baptist Health South Florida; and Professor and Founding Chairman of the Department of Radiology at Florida International University, Herbert Wertheim College of Medicine in Miami.

“These partnerships add exponential value to the meeting by incorporating multidisciplinary expertise and additional innovative practice strategies into the symposium sessions,” Katzen said. “We are excited that experts from our partnering organizations are among our course directors guiding the agenda for ISET. By working together, we are building a powerful educational program that will positively impact patient care and, ultimately, improve patient outcomes.”

In partnership with SVS, SIR, and SVM, leading minds in the fields of vascular surgery, interventional radiology, and vascular medicine are shaping ISET’s robust educational program through their leadership as course directors. Through the SVS partnership, new course directors this year include:

• Kakra Hughes, MD, PhD, Chief of Vascular Surgery, Howard University Hospital, Washington, D.C.
• Jessica Simons, MD, MPH, Director, University of Massachusetts Medical School Division of Vascular Surgery, Worcester, Mass.
