The increasing prevalence of vascular disease within the general population strongly suggests the critical need for medical personnel to stay abreast of advances in its prevention, diagnosis and management. Jointly sponsored by Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard Medical School, the MGH Vascular Summit offers the ideal educational forum for communicating the latest information to primary care practitioners and allied health professionals as well as specialists in cardiology, neurology, radiology, vascular surgery, nephrology and podiatry. Now in its second year, the symposium will gather leading experts to address topics of greatest concerns to those who serve patients presenting with any of a wide range of associated symptoms.
