Advances in the treatment of vascular disease have played a significant role in rising life expectancy over the past 70 years, resulting in lower morbidity, mortality, and quicker recoveries. However, there remains an urgent challenge in controlling risk factors such as obesity, sedentary lifestyles, and tobacco abuse. As explosive growth in endovascular technology continues, it is more important than ever for vascular specialists to remain proficient and stay up to date.
