Intravascular Ultrasound for Thromboembolic Disease/Portal Hypertension and Artificial Intelligence in Ultrasound Interventions

Monday, April 8, 2024
2:30pm - 4:00pm  
Location:400-402
CE: 1.5

Explore the role of intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) in deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE) interventions. The session highlights newer applications of intracardiac echocardiography catheters in complex portal hypertension procedures, including TIPS/DIPS. The session will also explore the use of AI and augmented reality in ultrasound-guided interventions.

Learning Objectives:

  • Demonstrate how to use IVUS and related technologies that can enhance patient care and outcomes.
  • Demonstrate the technical nuances of using IVUS in thromboembolic interventions.
  • Describe the technical nuances of using intracardiac echocardiography (ICE) catheters in portal interventions like TIPS and DIPS.
