EuroIntervention is a peer-reviewed journal of interventional cardiovascular medicine that has become one of the benchmarks in its field. Not only is it the official journal of EuroPCR and but also of the European Association of Percutaneous Cardiovascular Interventions (EAPCI). The Journal is endorsed by the European Society of Cardiology and has a distinguished European and international editorial board led by Prof. Patrick W. Serruys from the Erasmus MC, Rotterdam.
December 2011 Issue: Introduction
"As this is our December edition, you might expect us to review what we have been doing here in Europe, however, instead, we are taking a broader view, with a series of articles that are decidedly international. This month’s EAPCI column by Jean Fajadet discusses the increasing global presence of the EAPCI and how this impacts on its work. Then, further along in this edition you will notice that there are several papers of Asian origin. Why Asian? Because shortly and for the third time we will be present at AsiaPCR/SingLIVE 2012, taking place from the 12th to the 14th of January in Singapore."
