Scientific societies in developed countries have created standard procedures for training and accreditation for a safe practice in these procedures. In Spain, we are waiting for the development of the legislation on the accreditation for specialists which will establish the official formative model to achieve an accreditation in INR. Until this moment comes, it is necessary to establish standards that define desirable minimums for the formative period in INR. Radiology specialists as well as neurologists and neurosurgeons will have access to INR accreditation. Specific requirements for the hospitals that wish to offer this technique and training should also be defined. The Spanish Group of Interventional Neuroradiology (GENI), the Spanish Society of Neuroradiology (SENR), the Spanish Group of Cerebrovascular Diseases (GEECV), the Spanish Society of Neurology (SEN) and the Spanish Society of Neurosurgery (SENEC) have approved the content of this document and will create a committee in order to put into practice the accreditation of formative centres and INR specialists.enAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 Internationalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/Cerebrovascular diseasesEndovascular treatmentEnfermedades cerebrovascularesFormative periodIctusInterventional NeuroradiologyInterventional specialistNeurointervencionismoNeurointervencionistaNeuroradiología intervencionistaPlan de formaciónStrokeAccreditationCerebrovascular DisordersEndovascular ProceduresHumansNeurologyNeuroradiographyNeurosurgeryPhysiciansRadiology, InterventionalSocieties, MedicalSpainSpecializationVascular Diseasesresearch article27137521open access10.1016/j.nrl.2016.02.0051578-1968https://doi.org/10.1016/j.nrl.2016.02.005
