Guidelines for Case Submission of the 23rd CTO Club Case Competition
Education requires the sharing of experiences. For this reason, the 23rd CTO Club is making a Call for Cases. The theme is "My most impressive case in CTO PCI".
Physicians and fellows may submit one of their own clinical cases from the field of CTO. Each submitted case will be assessed by CTO Club Course Directors. Four exemplary cases will be selected as "oral presentation" at the Case Competition, and other cases with honorable mention will be selected as “poster posting” at the venue during the 23rd CTO Club.
Registration fee will be free for “oral presentation” and “poster posting” presenters. The best case of the Case Competition will receive an award and the presenter will be invited to be a CTO Club faculty member in 2024.
