Introduction
The goal of the ASNR Vessel Wall Imaging Study Group is to advance our understanding of cerebrovascular diseases by developing and support vessel wall imaging protocols and clinical / translational studies. Our objectives are:
- Develop uniform protocols for clinical implementation and reimbursement
- Stimulate research in the field, including multicenter investigations of the pathophysiology and risk factors of neurovascular disease
- Attract people with similar interests in vessel wall imaging from around the world
Promote education and teaching mechanisms in the field (i.e., webinar), and present a unified voice for achieving vendor support for protocol development
