In May 2008, we launched Cardiovascular eNewsletter to better address the questions on your minds. Encouraged by your extensive feedback, we launched Issue #2, dedicated to Stroke & TIA (Transient Ischemic Attack) management.
Stroke is a common but serious disorder. Hospitalizations attributable to stroke appear to be increasing, suggesting that the care of Stroke & TIA patients continues to be a significant health-care issue for the foreseeable future. Accordingly, in this new issue, we highlighted the role of Clinical Education and Service by explaining the novel approaches behind them, and that of CT & MRI via a clinical case in the successful delivery of Stroke & TIA care. We have also included the announcement of the UK Stroke Forum Conference where these topics were discussed.

In Europe, there were 885,000 stents employed in 2002. Stenting is expected to grow at an annual rate of ~10% until 2010. When patients who have been fitted with stents return for check up, clinicians need a diagnostically reliable, safe, and quick assessment method to assess the stent patency. A clinical case story is presented here with LightSpeed VCT XT using its pioneering low radiation dose and improved image quality. For more information please
