Before ATC begins, come join us for this one-day workshop that will explore the business, clinical, and technical aspects of integrating perfusion technology into transplant practice. The sessions in this workshop are designed to equip transplant professionals with practical tools for evaluating, adopting, and optimizing perfusion strategies from financial, programmatic, and technical perspectives.
Attendees will benefit from a dynamic mix of strategic financial insights, evolving clinical paradigms, and hands-on training using cadaveric models.
