CTEPH Futures Think Tank

“We want to debate the key issues and controversies in this area and we want to communicate a real call to action to the medical community that CTEPH patients deserve better outcomes." Jacquie Thornton, CTEPH Futures Think Tank Chair

The Bayer-sponsored CTEPH Futures Think Tank brought together the CTEPH community from around the world to discuss and debate how we can do more for patients with CTEPH today and tomorrow.

The event elevated current issues around the disparity in access to optimal care worldwide for CTEPH patients through interactive discussion and debate by leading experts in the field of CTEPH diagnosis, screening, surgery, and treatment.
