NEW YORK and Evanston, Ill., June 25 /PRNewswire/ -- Lenox Hill Heart and Vascular Institute of New York (Lenox Hill) and Mentice, Inc. (Mentice) partnered to coordinate the 1st trans-septal specific training course which incorporated high fidelity endovascular simulation utilizing the Mentice VIST(TM) endovascular simulator to enhance the training and overall learning experience of the course participants.

The Course Directors were Carlos E. Ruiz, MD, PhD, (Lenox Hill) and Howard H. Cohen, MD (Lenox Hill). The invited faculty was comprised of David R. Holmes, Jr. MD (Mayo Clinic) and Raoul Bonan, MD (Montreal Heart Institute).

"This was a great experience for all involved. In over thirty years of training physicians in many different catheterization procedures, this has been one of the most gratifying experiences.
