Interventional neuroradiology

期刊介紹：

Description - Interventional Neuroradiology is an international cross-disciplinary journal devoted to the study of diagnostic and therapeutic neuroradiology and related neurosciences. The discipline encompasses all those low invasive therapeutic techniques variously known as therapeutic neuroradiology, endovascular surgery, endovascular neurosurgery, etc. Interventional or therapeutic neuroradiology is not confined to endovascular procedures. It is an umbrella term embracing many treatments ranging from percutaneous nucleotomy to stereotactic biopsies and radiosurgery and an array of allied or overlapping disciplines from intensive care to physiology and embryology. The fact that all the procedures are performed in a radiological unit using a neuroradiological approach is the reason we chose this name for the journal. Interventional Neuroradiology aims to provide a forum to exchange news and views on all aspects of this fascinating new field of medicine. The journal publishes original papers, review papers, opinions and case reports (commented by the editors) and congress announcements. A special section will be devoted to "how-to-do- it" professional news. Other features include a commented review of the literature, a "library corner", biographical sketches of leading figures and contributions on ethical issues and the cost- benefit debate.
