Advanced Diagnostic and Therapeutic Interventional
Pulmonology, July 20- 22, 2007 - Four Seasons Resort
and Club, Dallas at Las Colinas
We are pleased to offer this state-of-the-art symposium. Our goal for the
symposium is to offer a comprehensive and innovative course that will update
practicing pulmonologists on the latest advances in interventional pulmonology,
providing both new diagnostic and new treatment approaches for malignant and
non-malignant pulmonary diseases. We believe the highlight of the symposium
will be the opportunity to hear and meet world-renowned interventional
pulmonology and thoracic surgery experts, who will share their expertise and
knowledge. You will also have the option to participate in an interventional
pulmonology workshop for hands-on application of available technologies. This
unique workshop will utilize novel en bloc animal lung models. The location of the
symposium, the AAA Five Diamond rated Four Seasons Resort and Club, offers
excellent conference facilities, superb amenities, and easy airport access. We
look forward to your participation.

This optional workshop is designed to provide bronchoscopists with hands-
on application of the latest interventional pulmonology technologies,
including endobronchial ultrasound; electromagnetic navigational
bronchoscopy; airway stents; linear, tissue implantable, radiotherapy
monitoring devices; bronchial thermoplasty; flexible and rigid
bronchoscopy; autofluorescence, and narrow band imaging bronchoscopy
as well as flexible and rigid pleuroscopy.This unique workshop will utilize
novel en bloc animal lung models to provide participants with a more
realistic experience with the different types of bronchoscopic procedures.
Faculty members will be present throughout the workshop to instruct
participants on the use of various interventional pulmonary instruments as
well as to answer any questions. The number of participants is limited to
optimize active participation.
