Workshops and Wet Lab
A new feature of ANZET in 2018 will be practical workshops and a wet lab. These include a workshop featuring intracoronary imaging and one to give hands on experience of infrequently used devices such as coils and snares, as well as rotablator. They will take place on Saturday 4 August, 1330 - 1500hrs.
Places will be limited, particularly for the wet lab, and people wishing to participate are asked to sign up on line during the registration process or by selecting the link in the email that has been sent to existing delegates.
The wet lab demonstration will run for 90 minutes, and will be streamed live to the auditorium for those who cannot attend in person. The other two workshops will run for 30 minutes and be repeated three times. Please ensure that you select your sessions carefully to avoid clashes.
