A virtual event dedicated to transcatheter treatment strategies for coronary and structural heart disease

Overview

Radcliffe Cardiology is delighted to announce that Transcatheter Interventions Online (TIO) will return on 9–12 April 2025.

Over five hugely successful years, TIO has established itself as a leading virtual event serving the educational needs of the global interventional cardiology community.

Under the guidance of Course Director, Prof Nicolas Van Mieghem (Erasmus MC, Rotterdam, NL), TIO brings together a faculty of international renown, case centres of excellence and a global audience of thousands of HCPs, for education that is both authoritative and enduring in support of superior patient outcomes.

With a mix of live cases, practical tips and tricks, insightful presentations and debate, this CME-accredited event will again be carefully curated to enhance knowledge, address practical challenges and explore innovative solutions in real-world settings.

Due to demand from our attendees, this year’s programme has been extended to four days. The first three days will maintain a global outlook, with faculty and case centres selected to represent and resonate with our truly international audience. The new fourth day will be TIO 2025 I US Focus – dedicated to the challenges of US-based practice.

With a reach that is truly global – in 2024, over 2,500 healthcare professionals from 155 countries joined for CME-accredited best-in-class education – TIO 2025 promises to be larger still.

Whatever your geographical location of practice, TIO 2025 is here to support your endeavour to achieve optimum outcomes in clinical practice.

Register now to join thousands of HCPs worldwide at TIO 2025.
