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.
