In August 2006, the 16th World Congress of the WSCTS took place in Ottawa. Led by Dr. Mussivand, the multidisciplinary congress focused on some of the fastest-evolving areas in cardio-thoracic healthcare, including medical devices, interventional procedures, pharmaceutical agents and surgical approaches. Recognizing the importance of interaction between disciplines, congress organizers shaped the program to “cut across traditional discipline boundaries” and involve the entire cardio-thoracic healthcare delivery team. This also included other important stakeholders such as industry and government representatives and the community. Delegates also had the opportunity to honor medicine’s “Living Legends”.
