Society for Cardiovascular Angiography & Interventions Scientific Sessions 2025

SCAI Scientific Sessions 2025 covers catheter-based cardiovascular care across coronary, structural, peripheral vascular, and congenital heart disease. The program combines procedural education with clinical research, case exchange, quality improvement, and cath lab leadership. Featured lectures address the future of interventional cardiology, professional innovation, and collaboration between pediatric and adult structural intervention. Held May 1–3, 2025, in Washington, D.C., the original meeting included workshops and live-case education alongside scientific sessions. This listing retains the supplied topic categories, learning objectives, featured lectures, and program leadership so interventional clinicians and trainees can assess the subject matter without repeated promotional summaries.

Learning Objectives

Upon participation in the sessions, attendees should be able to:

• Assess the most recent scientific advances, clinical evidence, techniques, challenges, and opportunities within the field of interventional cardiovascular medicine.
• Use appropriate diagnostic studies and clinical guidelines for the evaluation of heart disease and apply new pharmacologic and interventional approaches to the management of adult and pediatric patients.
• Appropriately select newly developed devices, procedural techniques, and therapies for cardiovascular disease to improve short- and long-term clinical outcomes after intervention.
• Employ quality-based practices, including appropriate use criteria, clinical guidelines, consistent documentation, and quality metrics for interventional procedures.
• Recognize and reduce occupational hazards associated with interventional medicine, including radiation exposure and orthopedic risks.
