Dear Colleagues
In the international environment, certifications for the participation of courses and the proof of acquirement of theoretical and practical knowledge of endovascular treatment methods have been implemented.
In German-speaking countries, the designations of the DGG (German Society for Vascular Surgery and Medicine) “Endovascular Surgeon” and “Endovascular Specialist” are established as of high quality. The requirements for obtaining this title are (1) the completion of the theoretical and practical modules in certified courses, (2) a catalog of surgical procedures and (3) a collegial viva voce.
During this DGG-certified comprehensive course run by Vascular International, all specific contents required by the DGG are offered except for radiation protection. Within 4 days, the course participants will learn ultrasound-guided puncture on the model and the use of closure device systems all about the endovascular treatment of aortic, pelvic and thigh pathologies in theory and practice on training simulators.
We are looking forward to your participation.
