Dear colleagues and friends,
It gives me great pleasure to invite you to participate in the 10th Delhi Course on
Neurointervention to be held from 14th to 17rd March 2015. It shall be organized at the Hotel
Sheraton Saket by the Department of Interventional Neurology & Stroke, Saket City Hospital,
in Collaboration with the Institute of Neuroradiology, University Hospital Zurich and Stroke &
Neurointervention Foundation (SNIF).
As always, the primary objective of this residential course is to learn and discuss anatomical,
biological, embryological, and phylogenetic aspects of various neurovascular diseases and
build up a philosophy and knowledge base for the practice of neurointervention. This course
provides an opportunity to learn from masters the technical aspects of the Neurointervention.
The specialty of neurointervention is growing constantly and having participation of people
from diverse fields of neurosciences including neurology, neurosurgery and neuroradiology.
The Neuroendovascular technology is evolving parallel with it and with newer and safer
devices appearing in our armamentarium. The Delhi Course also focuses equally on the
materials and devices and its safe application through conducting hands-on practical in
material workshops and video workshops.
To achieve an objective of giving a comprehensive and in depth view on the subject we have
carved the program and chosen eminent, dedicated and experienced faculty who will deliver
educational information and discuss with the participants through their vast experience in this
filed. We will propose you, a high quality of educational contents in this course.
Delhi is wonderful in March with flowers blooming all over.
I, on behalf of teaching faculty and myself, look forward to welcoming you in this course.
