DESCRIPTION:The management of TIA and Stroke in the UK is changing and curr
 ently both the National Institute of Clinical Excellence and the Department

 ysis for the management of ischaemic stroke is gaining increased acceptance
 . The maximum benefit of a carotid endarterectomy is within the first week 
 from the development of symptoms. There is still controversy on the place o
 f carotid angioplasty.

 ebate critical issues on the management of patients with cerebrovascular di
 sease.

 a variety of fields such as neuroradiology\, neurology\, vascular surgery a
 nd care of the elderly.
