We are pleased to present the preliminary program for the 8th Netherlands Heart Days, NHD 2014, from January 23 — 25, 2014 on Curacao.

This years meeting is organized by the NHD, together with the Maastricht University Medical Center and the NASKHO.

On the first two days mainly new radiological techniques and insights in e.g. pre- and post myocardial infarction imaging, cardiac myopathy and evidenced based cardiac imaging will be addressed. On the last day, gender topics in cardiac diagnosis and treatment and the interaction between radiologists and cardiologists will be addressed as well as new cardiac developments in the Caribbean. From many other perspectives the organizers decided eight years ago to start an annual course in Curacao. It has proved its worth in the last years as evidenced by both the returning number of participants of the previous years as well as the increment of new ones, both from Europe as well as from the entire Caribbean area and South America.

Early fee registration is open until December 1, 2013. Of course registration is also possible thereafter, until January 17, 2014

We hope to welcome you in Curacao in January 2014!
