The aim of the international certification in Neurosonology is to elevate the level of quality of diagnostic Neurosonology by awarding those who proved to be able to teach this method in theory and practice.
The International Certification is conducted under the auspices of the Neurosonology Research Group (NSRG), World Federation of Neurology (WFN). WFN NSRG, established in the 1970s, is an international professional organization of members with interest, training, academic contributions in neurosonology, under the umbrella of the WFN. Its aims are to promote scientific research, education and training in the field of ultrasonic techniques, and to promote international cooperation and dissemination of scientific information regarding the discipline of ultrasound in the field of Neurosciences. It is recognized by the WFN as an expert panel in neurosonology, WFN itself is an international professional organization of members of the neuroscience community, the largest in the world.
