Japanese Society of Neuro-Endovascular Treatment Specialist Qualification System. Six Years' Experience and Introduction of an Animal Model Examination

摘要

Recent advances in devices and materials, and therapeutic technical improvements in in-terventional neuroradiology practice make it possible to use this therapeutic method for the treatment of neurovascular disease. In view of the spread of this treatment and increasing numbers of the procedures, there is a social demand to maintain a certain therapeutic quality. One of the methods used to present the therapeutic quality of doctors to the public is technical and knowledge authorization by an official organization or society. According to the ideas of the Japanese Society of Neuro-Endovascular Therapy (JSNET) "The basic therapeutic standard should be secured by the Society to avoid unnecessary complications which are caused by improper techniques and immature experiences."
