Building on the success of the previous congresses we are delighted once again to welcome you to the bustling metropolitan City of Dubai. The 2017 edition is held from March 15-18, 2017 presenting a three-day comprehensive program that present cutting edge technology and images guidance therapy providing both clinically relevant updates as well as hands-on educational activities. Also this year we are delighted to invite delegates to participate in multiple interactive educational opportunities that provide case-based review and hands-on experience covering topics in embolization, venous interventions, amputation prevention and neurointerventions.

In addition to an exciting clinical congress, we are also delighted to invite delegates to participate in the pre-congress symposium titled “CLI and Management of Diabetic Foot” that aims to equip each member of the health care team with the education and resources needed to heal wounds and prevent amputations.

We are confident that the congress will meet the educational needs of all working in IR and look forward to welcoming you to this unique educational experience. Online registration is now open, and we remind everyone that reduced early-bird fees are available until February 16, 2017. We look forward to welcoming you to PAIRS 2017 in Dubai!
