Centauro
srl founded the Rivista di Neuroradiologia in 1988. Started
as an independent journal, it became the official journal
of the Italian Society of Neuroradiology. During this
wonderful experience we realized the need for an independent
journal devoted to interventional neuroradiology and related
sciences. An ideal forum open to all specialists working
in this field to debate, report, learn and understand
what interventional neuroradiology is and most of all
what it could or should be as well as the corpus of knowledge
needed to work within this special field of medicine.
We hope you will like this journal, read it, write for
it and naturally subscribe. In the same way, we hope that
the companies acting in this field will support the journal
by advertising, sponsoring subscriptions, offering us
presentations of products to be used by interventional
neuroradiologists, endovascular surgeons,
|
neurosurgeons,
or whoever it is performing therapeutical neuroradiological
procedures. Let us emphasize that interventional neuroradiology
has its own approach, which is not purely technical but
patient-focused. This is not only the journal's ethos, but
a suggestion to all who are involved or will be or would
like to be involved in this field. Mastering a technique
is extremely important and certainly the logical basis of
the neuroradiologist's work, but it is not enough. We need
to know more about other disciplines from physiology, embryology,
pathology and anatomy to intensive care, neurosurgery and
neurology to be able to act as physicians and not as just
technicians despite being experts in special or acrobatic
procedures. Interventional Neuroradiology is designed as
a worldwide independent scientific journal.
