Dear Delegates,

As interventional pain management is fast evolving into a subspecialty of pain medicine, we are organising one day pre-conference hands-on cadaveric workshop in Interventional Pain Management techniques for cancer patients on 12th February, 2009. World renowned National and International faculties are joining us to conduct this workshop.

Only fifty participants will be allowed for hand-on-workshop on first-cum-first basis. However remaining participants will be able to observe the procedure by live audio visual telecast in the conference hall. Delegates will be able to ask their queries from the experts.
