CRF announces late-breaking clinical trials for TCT 2024
The Cardiovascular Research Foundation (CRF) has announced the full lineup of late-breaking clinical trials and late-breaking clinical science scheduled for TCT 2024 in Washington, DC.
TCT 2024 takes place Oct. 27-30 at the Walter E. Washington Convention Center. This is the 36th annual Transcatheter Cardiovascular Therapeutics Conference. What started in 1988 as a gathering of 150 heart specialists is now widely regarded as one of interventional cardiology’s most important, influential conferences.
Topics to be discussed during the four-day event include transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) and other structural heart procedures, cerebral protection devices, pharmaceutical treatments and much more.
