The title of Dr. Armstrong’s lecture was “Diabetic Limb Salvage: A Combination of Team, Technology and Tenacity.”  Dr. Armstrong, who is Professor of Surgery at the University of Arizona College of Medicine, and Director of the University’s Southern Arizona Limb Salvage Alliance (SALSA), discussed how the “toe and flow” team approach can help reduce amputation rates, and also talked about some of the new and exciting techniques coming up in the near future regarding the diabetic foot. 

The audience at NYCPM watched Dr. Armstrong on five large screens, including four new, large, overhead high-definition monitors in the recently-renovated lecture hall.  Following the lecture, the audience engaged in a spirited question-and-answer session with Dr. Armstrong.
