The #ProgramCommittee of @ctosociety#CTOS2023. It’s been such a fun journey putting the programme together w/ an amazing team of individuals! We have 1 more day to go, but definitely not too early to thank @ashleighg, @GladdyLab, #MaureenO’Sullivan as well as Jennifer & Barbara and president #CarolSwallow for making things happen! 😃
High quality data (as always from @DCalleMD) quantifying the benefit of surgery in high volume centre (13 cases per year) - distance from black line to red/blue line shows magnitude of benefit.
