Objectives of the course and its place in the medical curriculum:<\/h3>\n

The purpose of the course is to introduce the dynamically developing methods for diagnosis and treatment of neurovascular disease, illustrated by case demonstrations. Minimally invasive treatment of both ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke is becoming more and more significant by the day and is expected to growth further in the coming years. This evolution generated an increased need for proper understanding of these conditions by the general medical community to secure timely diagnosis and proper patient orientation<\/p>\n
