SIS Conference 2008
JULY 10th - 13th, 2008

SIS 2008 offers a comprehensive, in-depth educational experience to physicians who specialize in cardiology, vascular, and neurovascular medicine.

Utilizing small group formats SIS 2008 will feature concurrent four-hour educational sessions. These sessions will include didactic lectures, hands-on cadaveric training, and live case presentations transmitted simultaneously from several catheterization laboratories.

Registration for SIS 2008 is available for physicians, product engineers and members of industry only. To maximize interaction between faculty and attendees, space in each four-hour session is limited.

SIS Presentation
Would you perform carotid artery stenting with embolic protection in an 80 year old man with an asymptomatic, 80-99%, unilateral internal carotid artery stenosis?
Always, if the anatomy can be negotiated.
Only in a clinical registry or trial.
Only if transcranial Doppler (TCD) detects cerebral emboli, denoting high risk for adverse neurological events.
Never.
Refer for carotid endarterectomy if not surgically high-risk.
