Wow! Awesome Meeting!

April 16, 2015 12:08 am / Leave a Comment /

Another awesome SEFCI dinner!

Thanks to everyone that could make it! We had some really amazing cases. Yoel’s gossypiboma was pretty insane! David’s septal perforator injury was nuts as well. Claudio’s iatrogenic pneumothorax no one had seen before. Just some really good cases.

Want to thank Joel for sharing with us some of his experiences in Israel teaching cardiopulmonary imaging. What an experience!

Also want to thank Fabien for changing his travel arrangements in order to make it to the meeting. Hope you enjoyed the experience!

And as usual, a million thanks to the Siemens-MedLab team for supporting our educational efforts. You guys rock!

I leave you with a few pictures of the event:

Spring 2015 Get-together

April 1, 2015 7:11 pm / Leave a Comment /
In an effort to stick to the idea of making these get-togethers a quarterly occasion, I’m honored to invite you all for our Spring meeting. We have secured The Dutch for Wednesday April 15 at 6:30pm. Please note, the slightly earlier than usual start time… then again this is Miami starting time which you all know what it means.

The Dutch is located at:
W SOUTH BEACH HOTEL & RESIDENCES
2201 COLLINS AVENUE
Check out the menu and the photos. The place looks awesome!
There are a few faces that we haven’t seen in a while. Let’s try and have a good show of people. Also, I would love if we could go back to challenging each other with some crazy cases…. so I am more than willing to take on any. Send cases for challenging the group!
Hope to see you all there!
Jacobo
PS. I want to thank SIEMENS/MedLab for once again helping us out putting together this event and supporting our field.
