More than 7000 CT scans put through UK-COMPASS core lab! Is this the biggest academic core lab anywhere? Well done Shaneel Patel; @dcormesher and Al Crosher 👏

Congratulations to Colin Bicknell who has been appointed BSET President! He will formally take over from Rachel Bell at our Annual Meeting on the 24th June.

Sophie Holder Vascular Society UK-COMPASS A real honour to present the important 3-year outcome date, thank you Shaneel Patel S R Vallabhaneni Michael Jenkins #VSASM2022

Thank you to those attending our session at Vascular Society ASM this morning. Lots of interesting discussion on our results. If a AAA is off-IFU for standard EVAR, how should we treat it? Every case in England over 2 years analysed…

UK-COMPASS Stephane Elkouri 😷 Vascular Society S R Vallabhaneni Shaneel Patel Jonathan Boyle Michael Jenkins Very interesting results. Similar to our own data published several years ago with a crossing of mortality in follow-up. Well done Rao and team!

Jonathan Boyle UK-COMPASS Adam W. Beck Vascular Society S R Vallabhaneni Shaneel Patel Michael Jenkins This is compelling, particularly since the patient capture is so good. I’m trying to wrap my head around the mechanism here. This is a story that needs to be told. Great work!

UK-COMPASS Devin Zarkowsky @doctorhammond NICE The British Society of Interventional Radiology Vascular Society CIRSE Society of Interventional Radiology National Institute for Health and Care Research BEST-CLI Trial In this case I see general agreement across studies. One treatment is safer but demonstrably less effective over time. With improvements the gap will close . The reality today in the US is rampant off IFU use even in good risk pts

@doctorhammond UK-COMPASS NICE The British Society of Interventional Radiology Vascular Society CIRSE Society of Interventional Radiology National Institute for Health and Care Research I think we need to move away from the ‘one is better than the other’ mantra and accept these as complimentary therapies. The key surely is who benefits most from which (or conservative) treatment? Perhaps COMPASS will actually show our current selection pathways are working.

Reflecting of very successful #VSASM2022 in #Brighton , thank you ⁦Rachel Bell⁩ and Vascular Society for the slightly less flashy bling! Also big thanks to overseas and invited lecture speakers ⁦Adam W. Beck⁩ ⁦Kevin Mani⁩ ⁦Ian Loftus⁩ ⁦Fabien Lareyre⁩
