Asia Pacific Summit in Shockwave MedicineCenter of Shockwave Medicine and Tissue Engineering (CSMTE),

Kaohsiung Chang Gung Memorial Hospital, October 02-04, 2015 Kaohsiung, Taiwan

Dear Colleagues, During the past few years, there have been significant advances that ESWT has evolved as a

medical specialty. The paradigm shift on the use of ESWT has expanded from skeletal to non-skeletal disorders such as acute and chronic wounds, diabetic foot ulcers, ischemic heart disease and erectile dysfunction. Many researches have shown consistent and positive results. The “Asia Pacific Summit in Shockwave Medicine” is planned on October 02-04 2015 in Kaohsiung, Taiwan. This special meeting is a perfect platform to share your experience, foster collaboration and evaluate emerging technologies. You are welcome to participate this meeting and share your experience with world renowned experts. You may take this opportunity to visit the beautiful and energetic city of Kaohsiung, Taiwan.

We like to invite you to submit abstracts for oral presentation and poster exhibit to the following email address: centershockwave.cgmh.kh@gmail.com or cjh1106@cgmh.org.tw . The committee will inform you the acceptance of your abstracts as soon as feasible. We appreciate if you can forward this message to your colleagues who have interest in shockwave medicine. The detail information is in the attached file.

Sincerely,

Ching-Jen Wang M.D.
