• Discuss the natural history, pathophysiology, and treatment options for patients with valvular and structural heart defects.

• Summarize the role of thrombus management in treatment of coronary and peripheral arterial interventional treatment.

• Differentiate various imaging techniques and how they may be utilized to examine the pathophysiology of cardiovascular disease and guide treatment decisions.
