COLORADO
SPRINGS, Colo., July 18,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Neurointerventional surgeons
from across the globe will gather at the Society of
NeuroInterventional Surgery's (SNIS) 21st Annual Meeting from
July 22 through July 25 in
Colorado Springs, Colorado, to
present novel research and innovation in their field.
The conference, held at the Broadmoor Resort, will be a hybrid
event with in-person and livestreamed content. Meeting sessions
will cover new topics ranging from how living in coal mining areas
worsens outcomes for stroke patients to the link between climate
change and the incidence of stroke. Attendees also will collaborate
on special sessions discussing how physicians can best embrace
wellness, diversity, equity, and inclusion in both their personal
and professional practices.
"ER" actor Leland Orser will be
attending to accept the "Amy Walters Patient Lecture" Award on
behalf of his late mother, Barbara
Renfrew. Orser partnered with SNIS to create this PSA to
raise awareness of the symptoms and treatment of stroke. The
Grant Hieshima Luminary Lecture will be presented by renowned
neurointerventionalist Michael
Marks, MD, FSNIS.
"Medicine is rapidly evolving as new technologies like
artificial intelligence dramatically impact innovation. The field
of neurointervention is no different," said SNIS President
Mahesh Jayaraman, MD. "Conferences
like the SNIS Annual Meeting provide a space for
neurointerventionalists to sharpen their craft, learning from
colleagues who are taking part in groundbreaking research around
the world. Exposing one another to new technologies, treatment
options, and systems of thought is the only way to advance our
field and provide better care for our patients."
The 21st Annual Meeting will highlight promising new
neurointerventional research, with press releases available on the
following abstracts:
- "The Gut-brain Axis: A Nationwide Database Analysis of
Gastrointestinal Syndromes Preceding a Diagnosis of Intracranial
Aneurysms"
- "Direct From the Field Bypass to CSC Improves Timeliness and
Likelihood of Thrombectomy for Patients with Emergent Large Vessel
Occlusion"
- "Advancement in Super-selective Catheterization and Drug
Selection for Intra-arterial Chemotherapy for Retinoblastoma: A
