VIVA 16: The Global Course for Vascular Medicine and Intervention

For the past 14 years, VIVA has delivered excellence in professional education by offering attendees an innovative, provocative, and balanced educational experience. Enhanced by the opinions of all specialties and stakeholders who touch the vascular patient and the use of cutting edge educational technology, VIVA provides a lively interactive learning environment.

Each year, world-renowned domestic and international faculty challenge attendees and each other by critically evaluating new, evolving therapies and innovations as well as engaging in stimulating discussion on the year’s most challenging cases. VIVA participants learn from one another in an environment that truly supports camaraderie. VIVA does not shy away from the tough issues, and with our colleagues from regulatory and reimbursement organizations, VIVA exposes obstacles and limitations in the care of vascular patients.

With multiple learning venues and formats, intense and focused education, the latest in advanced technology, new hands-on workshops, more global live cases, and the latest clinical data presentations, VIVA 16 is a must-see educational event for the dedicated vascular specialist!

VIVA 16 will take place September 18-22, 2016 at the Wynn Hotel in Las Vegas, Nevada. To view the agenda, Late Breaking sessions and more, visit Viva Physicians and register.

Where Education and Experience go Hand in Hand!

The VEINS at VIVA returns with this multi-specialty, comprehensive symposium providing an in-depth look into this rapidly evolving field. From diagnosis and management strategies for superficial venous disease to the challenges of intervention for deep venous thrombosis and pulmonary emboli, the VEINS will provide new information to help you care for these complex patients.

With pulmonary embolism representing the highest death rate of hospitalized patients and DVT episodes outnumbering heart attacks or strokes in the U.S. annually, it is now more important than ever to be at the forefront of new, state-of-the-art technologies. This two-day interactive course held at Wynn Las Vegas will be focused on acute and chronic venous diseases, and offer a comprehensive analysis of critical issues facing vascular specialists today.

With its success last year, The VEINS at VIVA again brings the state-of-the-art content including basic venous topics to contemporary science, controversies and expert analyses along with extended hands-on scanning with live patients.

There will be ample time for discussion with the world-class faculty throughout the meeting, including small group case discussions with faculty. Our goal is that the knowledge gained at The VEINS will allow attendees to better manage their patients with complex venous disease.

The VEINS at VIVA will take place September 17-18, 2016. To register and view faculty, agenda and important course information, visit Viva Physicians.
