X Congresso Nazionale di Neuroradiologia Pediatrica

(Translated by Google)
The Pediatric Neuroradiology is a discipline inherently "young" but that now looks to full maturity, are in fact 20 years, every two years, the Italian neuroradiologists met to compare their experiences and explore new scientific frontiers in children. The attainment of this maturity is also demonstrated by the institution within dell`AINR, Division of Pediatric Neuroradiology which this conference is the first official scientific event.
The Pediatric Neuroradiology is an integral and essential element of Italian Neuroradiology, fully endorsing claims and aspirations. Among them, the need to serve as a clinical science, which is close to the central nervous system diseases in developing not only from a diagnostic point of view but also, increasingly, therapeutic, so not only exploring the final frontier applications and advanced functional MRI pre-and postnatal, but also in percutaneous endovascular and interventional treatment, no longer confined to the borders of vascular malformations but more extensive and largely unexplored.
