Healthy Debates Make Hearts Race at ACC
 While the ‘healthy’ debate with Senator Grassely over an alleged late release of data from the ENHANCE trial raised some blood pressures at ACC’s 57th Annual Scientific Session, activity on the trade show floor was also pumping as attendees witnessed new unveilings of cutting-edge technology.
