Great!!

By the way, I think is time to remember the infamous statement of CIRSE (Interventional Radiological Society of Europe, who declared against fixing blocked cerebral veins even though they acknowledge ignoring the effects they could have)

Let's hope that the new editor in chief, together with the american Society of Interventional Radiology, can influence CIRSE and make a change for good in their directors board.

And by the way, I hope someday every board member in CIRSE be sued for denying medical care and for inducing others to fail their duties.
