Information regarding the cases for the Fellows Competition
We have a lot of interest, so please send your case to Don Palisaitis as soon as possible. Please register for CPI online and where it asks for “amount”, type in 0.00, and indicate in the comments that you are submitting a case for the Fellows Competition. Should your case get accepted as 1 of the 5, we will cover your flight and hotel for 1 night in Montreal (if required). Should it not get accepted, we would still like to have you there, and you would have to cover your travel and hotel.
If you register for TIC as well, we have a special reduced fee of $200.00 for Fellows. Fellows can present cases at the TIC program on either Thursday or Saturday afternoon, providing you are registered to the TIC meeting. If presenting a case, you will receive 4 nights (max) comp. hotel in Tremblant.
January 30, 2024 Evening: Fellow’s competition | Marriott Montreal Airport In-Terminal Hotel
Dates for TIC – Jan. 31 evening reception in Tremblant. Program runs from evening of Feb. 1 until Feb. 3, 2024 inclusive, 6:00 pm.
Following CPI, there is a bus from the Marriott Montreal Airport In-Terminal Hotel, which will take you up to Tremblant.
The CPI Fellows Competition remains an exciting forum to share and discuss interesting (confusing?) and challenging cases with world renowned experts on imaging and coronary physiology. We are looking for approximately 4-5 cases of either coronary physiology (FFR, iFR or CFR) or intracoronary imaging (OCT, IVUS) that will be selected to present on the Tuesday evening. We begin at 19:00 sharp.
Each presenter will have a total of 20 minutes. This timing will be carefully monitored. The cases are to be submitted to Don Palisaitis and if selected, then need to be structured so that there are maximum 2 stop points where discussion will be requested.
Please do not include slides with extraneous information – go to the point that is the highlight of your presentation. If attendees want to know more, they will ask. Try to finish within 20 minutes WITH your 2 stop points….
For submissions, please include a summary, with the major teaching point (s).
Please submit Case to: Don Palisaitis, MD, dpalisaitis@hotmail.com
