The International Society for Neurovascular Disease (ISNVD) is pleased to announce its 3rd  Annual Meeting to be held in Cracow, Poland from 23-25 February 2013.  

ISNVD has been founded to promote and scientifically coordinate research on a new and intriguing topic: vascular―particularly venous―background of a number of neurological disorders. For this purpose the Society encourages the exchange of information and ideas, and provides continuous education in this newly emerged area. 

ISNVD provides a forum for the wide range of medical specialists: basic scientists, vascular surgeons and angiologists, neurologists and neurosurgeons, interventional radiologists, neuroradiologists, physicists, vascular technologists and others. 

An interdisciplinary endeavor―with methodological awareness and up-to-date knowledge―is necessary, if we are to better understand vascular component of neurological disorders. You can learn more about the Society by visiting our web page: www.isnvd.org  

The overall objective of the Conference is to focus on ultrasonographic and magnetic resonance diagnostics of venous insufficiency of the brain and spinal cord, reports on clinical trials on the treatment for chronic cerebrospinal venous insufficiency (CCSVI), and evidence of venous disorders in the settings of non-MS neurological disorders. The Conference will be special in that we plan to include in the program also educational sessions dedicated to the management of acute stroke.

The Conference working language is English.
