CVI continues the Interventional Octagon webinar, a monthly case competition for fellows and early-career physicians. Submitters compete to win a prize and a travel grant to the next CVI Conference (August 6-8, 2026 in Denver, CO).
Each month will feature a different topic. Fellows can submit their cases online (form below) that match the topic criteria to be considered. The CVI directors will choose the 3-4 finalists who will compete during the live webinar. Each finalist will have 7 minutes to present their case to an esteemed panel including the CVI directors, after which there will be 8 minutes of Q&A and discussion.
Webinar attendees will be able to vote for their favorite case which will be considered by the panel and directors in choosing the winner. Registration is required to attend the webinar but it is complimentary.
