WELCOME TO WLNC 2013


Dear Friends,

ACINR is taking a more global position. DR PEDRO LYLYK from ARGENTINA and DR DEMETRIUS LOPES from USA joined our group in a new training platform that we named WORLD LIVE NEUROVASCULAR CONFERENCE (WLNC).

Our goal is to be the preferred neuroendovascular therapists. The format of WLNC will be of education via live case transmissions, practical training sessions and open discussion during the entire 3 days of the conference. We will display a wide variety of challenging cases without too many formal lectures or edited video cases. There will be many live cases highlighting the latest technical and imaging improvements, including: deployment techniques, indications of various extra and intraaneurysmal flow divertors, new bifurcation devices/bifurcation reconstruction techniques in aneurysm treatment, cerebral/spinal AVM/AVF treatment, supraaortic/intracranial stenting and acute stroke management. There will be no time restriction, allowing for free discussion during the transmission that will let us demonstrate treatment strategy planning, the small details and technical tricks of cases by the performing operators. Live demonstrations will be transmitted to the meeting venue with the best quality in high definition from more than 12 state of art neuroangiography labs.

To be able to maintain its global impact in educating and training of especially young neurointerventinists, WLNC location will rotate yearly between Euro-Asia, South and North America in different cities. The first WLNC will be held on May 29-31, 2013 in Istanbul/Turkey. In 2014, WLNC will be held in Buenos Aires/ARGENTINA and in 2015 Chicago/USA

Looking forward to seeing you all in Istanbul.
