👩‍⚕️ Pregnancy, Family Planning and Neurointerventional Practice

Pregnancy, family planning, and breastfeeding remain complex and highly personal topics for neurointerventionalists. Factors such as radiation exposure, fluoroscopy-guided procedures, institutional policies, and career progression can all influence individual decisions.

The WIN (Women in Neurointervention) Committee invites colleagues from neuroradiology, neurosurgery, and neurology to contribute to an international anonymous survey exploring current experiences and practice patterns.

⏱ The survey takes 5–10 minutes and is fully anonymous.

AI in neurointervention is moving from development to clinical validation.

The SHERPA consortium has launched 7 clinical studies evaluating AI- and robotics-assisted workflows in minimally invasive brain aneurysm and tumor treatments.

Five of these studies focus specifically on aneurysm care – from AI-based detection and rupture risk prediction to device guidance and structured digital follow-up.

As a partner, ESMINT contributes clinical expertise to ensure real-world alignment with neurointerventional practice.
