What Is Vascular Medicine?Vascular medicine is the lexicon of knowledge that includes the diagnosis, imaging, medical and endovascular therapy of arterial, venous and lymphatic diseases. These diseases include arteriosclerosis obliterans, chronic venous insufficiency, deep venous thrombosis, superficial thrombophlebitis, vasospastic diseases, vasculitis, lymphedema, the diabetic foot, thromboangiitis obliterans, and the associated medical disorders of dyslipidemia, diabetes, hypertension and coagulopathy. Certification of proficiency in this field is now available through the American Board of Vascular Medicine. Vascular and Endovascular Surgery » The Stanford Program
The National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute has named Stanford University as one of seven NIH-funded training programs in Vascular Medicine. We intend to train leaders in academic vascular medicine. Individuals that complete this program will have proficiency in the care of patients with vascular disease. They will be leaders in translational vascular research, bringing new insights, therapies, devices and diagnostics to vascular care. Trainees will achieve proficiency in the inpatient and outpatient vascular practice, and non-invasive vascular diagnostic laboratory. They will become familiar with catheter-based endovascular intervention, vascular surgery, vascular pathology and other related disciplines. During their training, they will participate in mentored clinical research, and have formal didactics in clinical protocol design, biostatistics, data management, as well as legal, ethical and regulatory issues that attend clinical research.
