“ICENS-2022 once again proved its standing as an effective international platform for exchanging experiences in endovascular techniques for diagnostics and management of vascular diseases. I am certain that together we can extend the clinical application of endovascular techniques and promote their scientific research. I would like to show my special gratitude to the Federal Medical-Biological Agency of Russia and FCBRN for their all-out support in organizing ICENS, their major efforts in research and introduction of endovascular diagnostics and management techniques into clinical practice, and making this type of medical care available to people in the most distant regions of Russia via their broad network of subordinate authorities. The Society considers maintaining this approach our top priority, which makes FMBA our key partner. We hope that this partnership will remain stable and productive”, said Kirill Orlov.
