Sneak Peek: Joint embolisation

We talked to Prof. M. Little, one of the lecturers of the joint embolisation session, about the current status of MSK embolotherapy, supporting evidence, and where the field is headed.

With its five targeted session types, the ET 2021 programme provides a wide-ranging education on the field’s most of-the-moment topics, as well as established therapies.

Case Remedy Sessions

In the Case Remedy Sessions, four panellists will present their cases, which will focus on a number of elements, including the personalised approach, other therapy options, technical aspects, outcome and follow-up.

Technical Focus Sessions

The sessions will contain four talks, highlighting the latest trends and exploring a great variety of tools and materials from liquids to microcatheters and microwires to temporary agents and particles, complimenting an extensive technical exhibition.

Special Topic Sessions

Special Topic Sessions aim to cover new areas and developments in embolotherapy. They are designed to impart the latest knowledge on topics important to daily practice, with current evidence being their central focus.

Established Therapy Sessions

Established Therapy Sessions will focus on the most popular topics in embolisation. Each talk will feature a different aspect of embolisation, from patient information, procedural tips, common complications and the next developments.

Morbidity and Mortality Conferences

In the Morbidity and Mortality – Bad Day session, experts will present complicated cases which had a negative outcome. The Morbidity and Mortality – Good Day session will feature a panel of IRs presenting cases that involved a serious complication but had a positive outcome.
