For Transradial Angioplasty, "Slender and Lean" in the Netherlands

Five years ago, interventional cardiologists in Japan decided that to make the transradial approach even easier, the equipment needed to be downsized, literally — and the Slender Club Japan was started, initiated by Dr. Fuminobu Yoshimachi. Interventionalists got together for workshops and meetings throughout Japan to demonstrate new innovations and techniques, "slender" techniques with miniaturized equipment. Now Dr. Ferdinand Kiemeneij, father of the trasradial approach, is bringing the Slender Club to Europe and has announced a very special kick-off meeting for the Slender Club Europe on February 14, 2014.
