Basic theoretical-practical course in Sclerotherapy
The course allows you to obtain specific theorical and practical knowledge on the sclerosing therapy of varicose veins of the lower limbs; starting from the pathophysiology of various veins arriving at the haemodynamic study of the same through echo-Color Doppler examination.
The Course will also provide basic but fundamental knowledge on the most suitable devices and sclerotherapy techniques.
