Endovascular at Harvard/Beth Israel

Details

The International Endovascular Observership, awarded by the CNS Foundation in collaboration with Harvard University / Beth Israel Deaconess, immerses the awardee in neuroendovascular procedures 7 days a week. The awardee is invited to participate in discussions of decision making as well as carrying out neuroendovascular procedures. Acute stroke and hemorrhage cases would also be included in the observership. In addition, once a week didactic sessions would be planned with our senior fellow and staff to review the basics of different areas of neuroendovascular practice including subarachnoid hemorrhage and aneurysmal disease, vascular malformations (cranial and spinal) atherosclerotic disease (intracranial and extracranial for carotid and vertebral disease), idiopathic intracranial hypertension and venous stenting, extracranial embolization for tumors, intracranial embolization for tumors, middle meningeal artery embolization for chronic subdural hematoma. The awardee will also be invited to institutional academic discussions in these various fields of study as well as weekly research meetings where clinical research fellows present and update the program on the status of a variety of research project with clinical staff.
