Cardiology Update Symposium 2004
DHMC Cardiology hosted its 22nd annual update symposium to an audience of about 155 physicians and other providers on Monday December 6, 2004. Taking place in Auditorium G at the main DHMC Campus, this year's symposium simultaneously offered a variety of updates on "bread and butter" cardiovascular issues, as well as provided brief, case-oriented updates on new technologies. Speakers included staff from Cardiology, Neurology, Gastroenterology and Neprhology and Hypertension.
