American Venous Forum (AVF) is hosting a unique, multi-specialty summit to address the challenges women face accessing care for pelvic venous disease (PeVD). SIR members can join the discussion in Chicago June 27–28 at a reduced rate! 
  
The key objectives of the Pelvic Venous Disease Summit are:

• Collectively unify understanding of the major issues involved, including those pertaining to diagnosis and treatment.
• Identify knowledge gaps.
• Chart the course for future research.
• Develop educational materials suitable for both the patients and the medical specialists that care for them. 

  
PLUS: SIR members Neil M. Khilnani, MD, FSIR, and Kush R. Desai, MD, FSIR, will present on the role of IR in the treatment of PeVD, and spotlight the critical need for the SIR Foundation-supported EMBOLIZE Study, which is currently enrolling PeVD patients, in advancing patient care. 
  
In addition to interventional radiologists, attendees will include vascular surgeons, cardiologists, gynecologists, adolescent medicine practitioners, pelvic floor physical therapists and pelvic sonographers, among others who treat chronic pelvic pain. This is your opportunity to network with providers and share your experiences to help improve the care of this group of underserved women.
