Welcome to the New ACC.06
We are thrilled to present
the renovated and revitalized 55th Annual Scientific
Session in Atlanta at the Georgia World Congress Center,
March 11 – 14, 2006!
ACC.06 will deliver
the rigorous science and clinical relevance attendees
expect every year, along with exciting changes designed
to deliver that content effectively and efficiently
for every attendee.
New
Calendar
A New Schedule
The program now begins on Saturday and ends on
Tuesday. You spend less time out of the office and enjoy
the same vast educational and networking opportunities.
Grand Opening Session
A new opening session on Saturday, March 11, welcomes
attendees to a groundbreaking Scientific Session.
New
Content
Enhanced Spotlights
Spotlight Sessions are more targeted than ever
to your clinical needs. ClinCard offers a “year
in review,” followed by case presentations and
board review-style education. Integrated Imaging merges
the old Echo, CT/MRI and Nuclear Spotlights to create
one session that mirrors the realities of clinical practice.
A Renewed Focus on Science
This year, key late-breaking clinical trials will
be accepted early (on Dec. 5), giving you an exciting
preview of the essential science to be presented at
ACC.06.
New
Connections
Celebrating the
Cardiovascular Community You’ll
find this celebratory theme woven through ACC.06 education
and events. Enjoy community rooms that allow you to
network with your peers in five therapeutic areas, heart
failure, EP, imaging, prevention and interventional
cardiology.
Innovation in Intervention:
i2 Summit 2006
A brand new event, designed to meet the educational
needs of the interventional community, takes place alongside
ACC.06. Offered in co-sponsorship with the Society for
Cardiovascular Angiography and Interventions (SCAI), i2
Summit offers unsurpassed evidence-based content,
presented by leaders in their fields. Live satellite transmissions,
computer-based learning and simulation training make the
content innovative and interactive. Session topics range
from Late-breaking Clinical Trials to practical percutaneous
intervention techniques to reimbursement and coding issues.
The Exposition
Explore the most advanced developments in pharmaceuticals
and devices with special industry education sessions
on Saturday. An Exhibit Hall Opening Reception follows
from 4 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. The Exposition reinforces the
ACC.06 community theme with a pavilion devoted to the
needs of interventionalists, as well as simulation training
for specific procedures and devices.
