MSK Conference
January 20-21, 2023
Paris, France
Due to the popularity of MSK sessions at GEST 2022 and the need for IRs to understand how to examine and diagnose a patient to determine if they are a candidate for an interventional procedure, we are thrilled to announce our first focused Hot Topic Meeting on MSK. This in-person event will be a classic GEST program full of interactions, panels, Masterclasses and more!
