The Impacts of Cardiac MRI on Congenital Surgical Results
On October 19 Koc University presented “The Impacts of Cardiac MRI on Congenital Heart Surgical Results,” a public symposium at Koc University Hospital Artlab Conference Hall that explored the benefits of cardiac MRI scans for depicting the congenital heart anatomy.
The symposium began with a presentation by Prof. Afksendiyos Kalangos.
