“…A task force team (TFT) was organized in August 2010 to develop training programs and certification. TFT members conducted research on programs and systems in other countries 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 , 6 , 8 , 9 , 10 , 11 , 12 , 13 , 14 , 15 , 16 , 17 , 18 , 19 , 20 , 21) and conceptualized the programs that would best suit Korea. After 1 year of effort, a rough draft of the ENS training and certification regulations was prepared, and the standard training program title was decided.…”

“…However, all ENS procedures carry a risk for stroke, indicating that appropriate and acceptable knowledge, procedural training, and case experience are necessary to perform ENS procedures safely. While several other countries have suggested ENS training standards 1 , 3 , 4 , 7 , 9 , 10 , 14 , 15 , 17 , 19) or have begun ENS certification, no ENS training programs or certification systems have been established in Korea. There are two ENS-associated societies in Korea; The Society of Korean Endovascular Neurosurgeons (SKEN) and the Korean Society of Interventional Neuroradiology.…”

The need for standard endovascular neurosurgical (ENS) training programs and certification in Korea cannot be overlooked due to the increasing number of ENS specialists and the expanding ENS field. The Society of Korean Endovascular Neurosurgeons (SKEN) Certification Committee has prepared training programs and certification since 2010, and the first certificates were issued in 2013. A task force team (TFT) was organized in August 2010 to develop training programs and certification. TFT members researched programs and systems in other countries to develop a program that best suited Korea. After 2 years, a rough draft of the ENS training and certification regulations were prepared, and the standard training program title was decided. The SKEN Certification Committee made an official announcement about the certification program in March 2013. The final certification regulations comprised three major parts: certified endovascular neurosurgeons (EN), certified ENS institutions, and certified ENS training institutions. Applications have been evaluated and the results were announced in June 2013 as follows: 126 members received EN certification and 55 hospitals became ENS-certified institutions. The SKEN has established standard ENS training programs together with a certification system, and it is expected that they will advance the field of ENS to enhance public health and safety in Korea.

The interventional neuroradiology (INR, or neurointerventional surgery) became a rapidly emerging specialty since the first Working group in Interventional Neuroradiology (WIN) meeting was held in Santa Barbara in 1980 by 15 pioneers. Although the specialty has been led by neuroradiologists, other specialists of neurosurgery and neurology have become involved. Due to diverse background of the specialties with inadequate requirement of education and training, proper level of training standard and quality assurance may be achieved for outcomes of treated patients with neurovascular diseases. In East Asia, there are less inter-relationship of education and training among China, Japan and Korea when compared to the learning opportunities in western countries from the three nations. Therefore, we present the current status and difference of medical education system and compare INR training to improve understanding of INR development in the adjacent countries.
