Why This Conference Matters

ESC Congress is one of the largest international meetings in cardiology, attracting clinicians, scientists and allied professionals from many countries. Cardiovascular disease remains a leading cause of death, and new evidence in prevention, imaging, interventions and pharmacotherapy is presented and debated at the meeting.
