Dear Friends and Colleagues,
The 5th International Meeting on Interventional Cardiology:
Frontiers in Interventional Cardiology will take place in
Tel Aviv, Israel, December 7 - 9, 2003 and it gives us great
pleasure to invite you to participate in this meeting.
The field of Interventional Cardiology is in the process
of rapid growth undergoing constant innovative and evolutionary
changes, combining novel catheter-based technologies with
new frontiers in pharmaceutical and molecular biology research.
To accelerate research initiatives and optimize patient care
strategies, it is of utmost importance to enhance the flow
of information and ideas among the deeply committed researchers
and clinicians involved in this field.
Similar to previous years several hot topics will be highlighted
during the meeting, including novel devices for coronary interventions,
novel molecular strategies to limit restenosis; vascular molecular
biology; stents and antiproliferative stent coatings; adjunctive
drug therapy; coronary brachytherapy and other issues.
The meeting will include a number of key faculty members
who will have the responsibility of organizing the curriculum,
supervising mini-symposiums and discussions, as well as selecting
abstracts for oral and poster presentations. In addition to
the focused scientific sessions, there will be selected live
case presentations from a few leading catheterization laboratories
and Digital Video Demonstration sessions, presenting interesting
and complicated cases in interventional cardiology.
The venue for the Meeting is Tel-Aviv, Israel's largest city
and biggest commercial center. It is a busy metropolis, which
inspires its visitors with a unique energetic atmosphere of
excitement and fun. Visible from a distance with its seafront
skyscrapers and exclusive hotels, Tel-Aviv presents a lively
