Great pic of James Hermiller next to bust of Gruentzig, whose major concern was patient safety. New SCAI_Prez important focus on safety for the interventional cardiologist, tho I'd add techs & nurses who spend many min close to rad sources while interacting w patients.

I'm seeing studies & tweets about vs. , except for those darn Europeans who insist on . So just wanna say, English minor that I am, that TAVI vs SAVR just doesn't scan that well...or rhyme. TAVR vs. SAVR -- it just rolls off the tongue.... 🤣

starts Thurs. But before , there was Mason Sones' brachial cut-down & Mel Judkins' femoral access. Even 40+ yrs ago, patient safety & image quality were their top priorities & that led them to found SCAI Now. Dr. William Sheldon tells the tale.

Yes. I remember when the PROSPECT study was first presented at TCT Conference in 2009 by Gregg W. Stone MD -- Patrick Serruys said in a discussion that we're now able to identify vulnerable plaque, but the question is what can we do about it? This Q remains today.
